A self-described local weird worker, writer, photographer and adventurer, My name is Chad Abramovich. I’m a 27-year-old Aspergian and a native Vermonter. I drink too much coffee, have some background in graphic design, and love activities such as Geocaching, home brewing, and cartography. I’m cynical, socially awkward, have been struggling with depression and anxiety most of my life, and the most uncoordinated person I know.
I started my blog Obscure Vermont in 2012 as a way to document the venerable weirdness of my home state, which is a place I grew to love. And to my fervor, Vermont had plenty of curio to go around.
As someone who has always felt like an outcast, this practice has proven to be very therapeutic to me. Not only do my strange travels help me to better understand the greater world around me, but it has given my life a much more focused purpose. Through this continued practice and perseverance, I taught myself to become a writer and photographer, and to grow as a human being.
As it would turn out, other people really seemed to like what I was doing, and that really meant the world to me. however, Obscure Vermont was never a business venture for me, and at its core it remains what it was when I first created it – An obsessive hobby.
I was diagnosed with Aspergers, a form of autism, when I was 8, and though it’s provided me with some difficulties in life, my differences also turned out to be the gifts that set me apart. This blog is partially the constantly morphing product of an obsessive Aspergian mind.
Even though I live in Vermont, I’m not limiting myself to staying within the state’s borders, and sometimes find myself exploring across New England, New York and Quebec.
