CURRENT MISSION

Save Earth from meteor (a la Bruce Willis in 'Armageddon') and get my own Aerosmith song

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty typical traveler, I guess. I like to just go. I first lived abroad when I was 17 and have just kept at it since then (seven years?). I grew up in the US, got my degree in New Zealand and spent every cent I earned bartending on travel to other countries.

Oh, and I just landed a gig that pays me to live in Morocco. Life is good.

PHILOSOPHY

Batman is the best superhero ever. A diet is when you switch from beer to vodka. The best instrument in the history of music is the Rhodes Piano. I fold my pizza slices. I hate spoons. I name stray dogs and feed them people food. May have accidentally eaten monkey in Laos.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The best stories shouldn't be posted on public websites.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you up to six guitar chords (encompassing, coincidentally, the entire Green Day, Ramones and ACDC discographies). Make a devastating mojito (caveat: no bottle of rum has lasted longer than 6 hours in our apartment)

Or macroeconomics. I'm wicked good at graphs.
