CURRENT MISSION Finish this year long trip and offer my couch out to return all the kindness I've received ABOUT ME Happy-go-lucky, fairly excitable, easily distracted, creative, independent, nature-loving, spontaneous.... I love traveling and have been on the road for the last year and a half. I left home with a vague plan and route mapped out, which went completely to pot during week one... I'd planned on spending 4 days in San Francisco, but ended up taking 5 months to explore the west coast of the States! That pretty much sums up my life right now - I'm spontaneous and intuitive; on the go, but just as likely to find a spot I love and put down roots for a while. The people and culture are what makes a place for me - though I'd never overlook a drop-dead view! I'm lucky to have a huge family and diverse group of worldwide friends, and am always looking to make some more.
