In this second episode, I spoke with artist and traveler Alán Ramiro Manning. Alán has been traveling the world and sketching for over ten years, visiting over 25 countries, and still going. He is an urban sketcher who has set out to create beautiful art, connect with people of all cultures, and serve them in the process. We talk about his path to becoming a full-time traveler, his background in architecture, embracing uncertainty, and much more.

With ten years of experience working in architecture and a lifetime obsession with sketching, Alán has combined the two to create a holistic approach to representing vision—as lines.

Travel sketching, particularly, is something that has developed since his break-through studying abroad in Spain. When push came to shove, no money left, Alán hit the streets of Barcelona and shared his sketches with tourists and locals alike. That was the catalyst that led him to 'SeeTheLines.' By creating an experience for people, in turn, a connection and a memory to savor, sketching became a means to access the universal language of admiration for creation.

After having traveled to 20 countries, it is with utmost joy and passion that, Alán is now in the position to create immersive experiences to join him on his travel sketching journeys. You will see the lines and begin to harness your own unique vision of creating a legacy of sketches.
