***I am currently deployed to Colombia for a response so I am unable to host in Barbados until early October*** Bonjour à tous ! Une brève intro de moi / A brief intro about me: I am from Chicago, USA and my travel adventures began with me studying abroad in Barcelona from December 2016 to May 2017 and had the pleasure to travel all over Europe; 18 countries to be exact! All in 5 months! I love love love to travel, meet new people, and am a very easy-going and social person. Then, I graduated uni in 2019 and I backpacked China in 2019 before starting my job. My job out of uni was in consulting and I was living in NYC before the COVID pandemic. After the COVID pandemic, my work became remote and I was traveling the US while working remotely. In Aug/Sept 2022, I backpacked Albania for 2.5 weeks and during this time I had the realization that I need to do what I love. Consequently, as of 11/2022, I quit my corporate job to start my career path within the humanitarian sector. I started working for an Italian NGO in Moldova and was in Chișinău, MD until 06/2023. During my time in Moldova, I got to explore Moldova and also the surrounding countries in eastern europe. As of 08/2023, I started with a Swiss NGO based in Dnipro, Ukraine, and for my 2 weeks vacation, I went to backpack Iraq on 11/2023. On 01/2024, I returned back to the US and spent time traveling the US, learning cooking, learning french intensively, and volunteering with the American Red Cross. After a long job search, on 10/2024, I landed a job with the International Red Cross based in Johannesburg, South Africa, and starting 12/2024, I backpacked some of the southern African countries and Pakistan until 02/2025. As of 06/2025, I am in Barbados working for a UN agency, WFP (world food programme) and continuing with my intensive french learning. In addition, taking my opportunity to travel around the Caribbean islands too! Each one is unique in it's own way. I'm big into mindfulness, meditation, talking about life and philosophy, and the whole personal/spiritual development journey. My passion is helping others and spreading my love and positivity to others. I also love snowboarding and mountain hiking. I'm a big outdoors enthusiast and love extreme adventures as well. I also attend salsa and bachata classes and go bouldering and rope climbing whenever I can. Since 2024, I have gotten into cooking and really enjoy cooking meals from scratch from different countries. I usually pick dishes from different countries, and cook it without any store-bought/prepared stuff besides the basic ingredients!
Im a really cool and adventurous guy. I enjoy helping people and im always learning and grown. Cause i know that this version of me is only temporary and i have to grow more in order to be the best version of my self which is why I work hard. I don't smoke or drink and really love food and would try any new food once. I enjoy dancing and Art, i have a fond appreciation for the beauty that is life. Its my dream to Travel the world Visiting every country on my list (Its a big list). I dont like people that manipulate others to get what they want hurting these people in the process. Really im an all rounded guy but im always willing to learn more. Just ask if u want to know more im always willing to share.
