Travelling to tattoo
tattoos and travels of Chad Koeplinger
Tattooing has long been the trade of vagabonds and nomads, and it’s easy to see why, you can fit a small tattoo studio in a backpack. I’ve met and known many tattooers, almost all of whom have left the United States to tattoo. Some of my friends have even tattooed on every continent (not including Antarctica) and even I (someone who hasn’t traveled that much) have tattooed in 6 different countries, not including the US.
This is one of the things that made me interested in tattooing, and I always think about one of my favorite artists, the most traveled tattooer Chad Koeplinger. If you follow Chad's Instagram you will see how often he is moving around.
