About Me

CURRENT MISSION

cultural exchange and travel

ABOUT ME

I am married and live with my wife in Demante, Morocco. We are Peace Corps volunteers and to be clear, we are not offering an authentic Moroccan experience as we are not Moroccan. But if you ever wanted to see how Peace Corps Volunteers live and 'work', Marhba (your welcome to surf our couch)

btw - While we are in the Casablanca Region, we are much closer to Marrakesh.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe we were put on earth to enjoy ourselves and to be kind to others.

Interests

I like working with my hands. I enjoy almost all things outdoors. And I like reading everything from murder mysteries to political histories.

  • reading
  • traveling
  • outdoor activities
  • skiing
  • tourism

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite movie: Super Troopers
Books: I have been reading a lot of historical fiction lately
Music: Right now I have been listening to a lot of country and alt-country. I think because I miss America so much.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a whitewater river guide in West Virginia after I ran out of money on the Appalachian Trail. I was ski patrol in Utah. I built a 450sqft addition on my sisters house that is still standing strong (of course it's only been three years). I rebuilt the engine in two trucks. Both times they ran afterwards, once better. Right now my wife and I are in our second year of Peace Corps service.
