Hi, I’m Matt

Welcome! My name is Matt Dursum, the creator of wayfarersoliloquy.com.

Who am I? 

I’m a freelance writer and journalist from Michigan. 

Since 2021, I’ve been based in Latin America. As a journalist, I’ve covered a wide range of topics, including politically charged rock and roll history in Argentina, the craft beer industry in Southern Brazil, and I even danced in Buenos Aires’ Carnival parades for Condé Nast Traveler; all for the perfect story and a bit of fun. 

In 2024, I became the co-founder of tastesandtides.com, a digital magazine about good food and good surf.

As a copywriter, I write detailed and original articles, homepages, and blog posts for various companies. This is where my SEO and content creation expertise shines. Nothing makes me happier than a client who loves my work.

As for my personal life, I love surfing and also traveling, which is why my career in journalism has been a magical fit. Another one of my passions is learning languages. I’ve worked hard to get to a C1 level in Japanese, B2 in Spanish, and B1 in Portuguese. Now, I’m flailing and struggling to add French to my list. My homepage, wayfarersoliloquy, is a culmination of all my work and passions.

I hope you enjoy following my stories and checking out my work on other platforms.
