Ben from Outlast: The Jungle<\/a> was a federal agent for the Office of Naval Intelligence. However, he decided to completely change his life, quit his job and travel the world, which involved basically hopping from hostel to hostel, and meeting people from all different cultures.<\/p>\n

Now, his life is hiking mountains, trying caviar, and working snowboard instructor jobs. From 2018 to 2020, Ben was travelling the world, and “pined” for a permanent place he could call home. But in the last few months, he’s been sharing pics back in his federal uniform.<\/p>\n
