CURRENT MISSION To explore some of the most unique places in the world, & also to get to know as many people with varying perspectives as possible! ABOUT ME I'm from Southern California (LA) 🇺🇸 originally and lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for 12 years. I also lived short periods in Brazil 🇧🇷, Venezuela 🇻🇪, France 🇫🇷, and Quebec 🇨🇦. I’ve visited 42 countries, and 30 US states. In 2019 I quit my job and moved out of California 🐻 to travel the world and work remotely. With the pandemic, I moved to Austin Texas 🤠 for 1 year, and now I am road tripping across North America 🌎. I love cultures, languages (especially Latin American cultures and languages, but I enjoy learning about all!), and meeting new people. I'm very open, and try to show respect and kindness for everyone while having fun enjoying this thing called life. Note: I do not use CS with the intention of dating (I’m hetero). I aim to meet new potential friends, and just interesting folks regardless of gender, etc. Instagram: Joshfcurtis
