Hi,

Most call me Josh. I'm from Emigrant, a small town in rural Montana, where you can go horse back riding and dog sledding in the winter. Emigrant is a short drive from Yellowston National Park; also the world's largest super volcano.
Living in constant fear of a possible firey death, I naturally developed a passion for traveling. I've managed to travel all over the US, visit over 10 countries, getting tattoos in 8 of those countries, and live in one of them for the majority of my adult life.
I'm an outgoing introvert who loves long fascinating conversation, telling cheesy jokes, and laughing. One of the things that brings me the most joy in life is making others laugh - although I tend to have an unusual sense of humor I'm told. Most importantly I'm passionate about finding the most meaning in life, whatever way that might happen.
I'm currently living in Montana, USA, which has a larger population of deer and elk than people - Just the way I like it ;). I also exremely enjoy the outdoors and wide open spaces, which makes Montana the ideal home.

My philosophy on life is chase your dreams, escentially. That, and travel. Travel a lot. The world is far to big an filled with far too many wonderful things to stay in any one spot for too long.

Cheers!
