CURRENT MISSION

Wondering what I'm see and do next

ABOUT ME

Thanks for stopping by and taking a minute to get to know me.

My name is Tim and I'm currently traveling South America and have been to Colombia, Ecuador,and Peru. I'm living in Buenos Aires doing something I love.

I've been traveling all my life and have been to many countries. I was born in Austin, Texas and lived there till I was 12 then moved to Taiwan for 6 years. Moving to Taiwan was horrible at first but from there I saw many other countries and my love for traveling soon blossomed.

After college, I realized that small town USA wasn't for me. There's so much more out there. I want to see the pyramids of Egypt, drink the smoothest Burgundy in France and party with more random pop stars (one Malaysian pop star and one Colombian ballad singer).

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know if I have a personal philosophy. I mean I can give you a million different quotes about living life and blahblah. I guess I'm more of a "Ok. Why not?" type of guy.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Anything really.

Music: Just about anything. I like listening to Jazz surrounded by cool people.

Books: I'm a self help nerd. My bookshelf has all the greats: Tony Robbins, Eckhart Tolle, Stephen Covey, etc. I use to read a ton of Stephen King when I was younger but nowadays I find myself not reading as much fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching myself graduate college was pretty epic and so was bribing a cop.

Teach, Learn, Share

Going through the Ecuador/Peru border sucks. Be careful of fast talking taxi drivers who grab your bag and won't give you a minute to collect yourself.

Also, we wary of exchanging money with guys on the street. I lost $70 this way and the money was comically bad.
