CURRENT MISSION

To take on traveling while I have the means and the drive!

ABOUT ME

I just finished an 8 year career with the navy in 2011. From there I took on a year and half of travel that included sailing the Mediterranean and teaching English in Moscow. Since then I have had a few jobs that led me to move to San Francisco and become a system operator for wind turbines.

PHILOSOPHY

I personally feel everyone should strive to create their own vision of the world. If you haven't found that vision than go out and find it!

"Good company, good wine, good welcome make good people."
Shakespeare

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”
― Mark Twain, The Innocents Abroad/Roughing It
