ABOUT ME

My name is Alex, I am 24, currently living in Woodbury, CT and am gearing up for a trip to Europe for a few months or so. I am the oldest of 4 with a younger brother and 2 sisters. I enjoy occupying my time with a diverse assortment of activities between work, hobbies and hanging with friends. I highly value human relationships and feel that my friends and family are a huge part of who I am as a person. I believe that you learn more from experiences and interactions than any number of books can teach you in a lifetime.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that the best way to grow as a person is through new experiences. I believe that many people are too set in their ways and that forcing yourself ouside your comfort zone should remain an importatnt component in the lives of people today.
