About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep climbing

ABOUT ME

Traveling, MA in Middle East Studies and Arabic, theatre, more traveling.

Life is about experiences. A desk will kill me. I have to be moving at all times. That's why I travel. I absolutely plan on seeing everything possible before I die and do not want to have to look back on my deathbed knowing I missed out.

I have a twisted sense of humor, but am still a nice guy. I just laugh about wildly inappropriate things.

All I want are new experiences, and crave cultural exchanges. The absolute happiest I am when traveling is when talking and experience the local culture. Dancing, laughing, and local sports are the best. And the FOOD. Even if I know I'm going to get sick, I don't care. I must try it.

PHILOSOPHY

Live young while you can. Travel often and meet as many new people as possible. Don't wait until you're too old to enjoy your experiences.
