Shawn is a father, philosopher, and writer who lives in the Silicon Valley. He has been, at times, a stay-at-home dad, a work-at-home dad, a not-so-much-work-at-home dad, and a work-at-the-office dad. He has been writing about parenting, philosophy, travel, and social media since 2007. He is known as Backpacking Dad in the online world because he thought up that name before his kids were too big to be carried around in one; he is having second thoughts about it now. He thinks he's funny and smart and really really ridiculously good-looking.
