Meet AJ

Hi, I’m AJ Weimer.

Corporate pilot, martial artist, musician and lifelong traveler. 90+ countries and counting.

20+ years as a corporate pilot, 90+ countries, former executive protection, and the author of Mastering the Art of Travel.

My love of travel started on the back of my father’s motorcycle, crossing the country out of saddlebags.

In the 1990s I joined the U.S. Air Force and was stationed in Tokyo, where I found martial arts and later founded the Martial Arts Unlimited Association. After the military I worked in executive protection around the world, then followed my grandfather, a World War II pilot, into aviation.

For 20+ years I’ve flown jets internationally. Nomad Pilot Life is where I share what that taught me, so you can travel safer and with more confidence.

What I write about

• Flying calm: turbulence, nerves and what pilots do up front
• Travel safety: hotels, streets and planning for the unexpected
• Packing and gear: what earns a spot in my bag
• Staying fit on the road: workouts, food and jet lag
