Gunnar Harris

Businessman, Adventurer

After receiving my Accounting degree from West Virginia University, I started a great job/career with Sherwin-Williams. After applying for a promotion position in Colorado, I made the move out west. Once there, I discovered my passion for the outdoors and exploration. I decided to take a scary step in my life and quit my current career in pursuit of a lifestyle that can support the most exploration possible. I used my Accounting knowledge to start a remote Accounting & Bookkeeping business as I knew this could allow me to make an income while traveling. I since then started a passion project “The Life List Project” that allows me to live a more intentional life and share the journey along the way with you. Since then, I have accomplished some pretty cool things but am just getting started. Some of my notable achievements to date are:

  • Started a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & MMA Gym

  • Created a YouTube Channel that’s Helped over 230,000 Small Business Owners and Bookkeepers

  • Became a Fractional Controller for Small Businesses over $20 Million Annual Revenue

  • Built and Lived in a CamperVan Full-Time for 2 Years

  • Traveled to 49 States and Trained Jiu Jitsu in 20 of them

  • Lived Solo in Brazil for 6 Weeks

  • Climbed to the Highest Point in the World (Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador)

  • Walked 100 Miles in the Scotland Highlands and Across (and back) the Grand Canyon with all his Gear and Food on his Back

  • Became a Certified Wilderness First Responder
