- Kristian hits the road
Last week, I started my four and a half month-long journey with Marina—my companion for the long road ahead (pun intended). Marina, one of Clif Bar's biodiesel-loving Dodge Sprinters, and I will travel the highways, byways, interstates and country roads together, visiting coffee shops, deli's, smoothie/juice shops, and a bunch of other places, talking about our bars, and seeing all the sights along the way. We'll start our journey at the sandy beaches of San Diego and, if all goes as planned, make our way up to the rocky cliffs of Seattle. With the back of my truck filled with bars, I managed to fit in a few other necessities before I took off from the Berkeley headquarters-Surfboard, check; guitar, check; wetsuit, check-lots of gear that I hope will get lots of use during the coast-to-coast road trip.
Keep your eyes peeled on this here blog for stories from the journey. And if you happen to see us out there, give us a honk. Who knows? If I'm stuck in traffic or at a light, I may even toss you a Clif Bar (or two…).
See you on the road.
Kristian and Marina

Hi Kristian,
You sound like to have a dream job!
Clif bars are one of our favorite energy bars. Thanks for “hitting the road” to spread the word.
Don’t forget to look up the Yoga studios when your traveling. They are filled really interesting people, who are enjoying life the right way.
Take care and drive carefully. Make sure you record your diary each day. Have you read Steinbeck’s “Travels with Charley?” You should read it. It reminds me of you. However, Your “Travelling with Marina” and getting paid for it! Hopefully.
Love,
Ying
You are so lucky! It sounds like you are getting paid for having a good time. Enjoy life. Miss you. Talk to you soon.
It was great seeing you in San Diego! Next time the surfing will be better.. It was nice filming you at the beginning of your journey. I wish you the best on your Cliffbar awareness travels and await your arrival in San Francisco. Hopefully this will raise more attention to Bio-Diesel!

Ying, you are so right, yoga studios are the perfect place to spread the word about Clifbars. And yes I have read Travels with Charlie in search of America, a fantastic book about traveling in a converted van, meeting people and searching for the pulse of our great country. Vanessa, life is good, and I will talk with you soon. Dustin, great filming, and I am trying to spread the word about the clean Bio-Diesel. I visited a great place in Corona, California today called eXtreme-biodiesel. Don’t worry all, no Corona’s in Corona j/k.
