About Roadtrip Nation
Sam Wada
Editor / Motion Graphics Artist

What makes you awesome?
The fact that I’m half Japanese. I’m just ninja enough to be cool, but not so ninja that I’m feared.
I aspire to...
never stop trying to be a better person.
What movie could you watch on repeat for 24 hours?
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World! I’m free this weekend so...challenge accepted
What's your favorite driving music?
Indie Folk/Rock. Basically, The Decemberists mixed with Death Cab for Cutie. Add in Ben Folds and I could drive anywhere.
What's your favorite method of transportation?
I wish I could ride on a giant eagle like Frodo; it seems like the most expedient way of getting around.
Best conversation you've had while in a vehicle:
My dad and I once had a very deep conversation about The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across The 8th Dimension while driving. Theoretical physics conversations with my dad are always the best.
