Ryan Polk
Newhall, United States
Former Army medic turned writer, photographer, and filmmaker.
My name is Ryan but most people call me Doc. I was a medic in the Army for 6 years which is where the nickname originates. I had a hard time adjusting to civilian life after I got out and, despite the resources and people available to me, I wound up on the streets. I found my way forward by expressing myself through art. This journey led me to founding Doc's Odyssey - the ongoing story of finding my way home. Here, I share my life through my experiences with adventure travel, bringing you along.
