About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Maximize my life of adventure and make friends

ABOUT ME

As I travel the world and meet more cultures, I realize how much happier others are with less than what the US always touted- its amazing. The only thing I want more of- is vacation time and meet great people along the way. I'm up for travel, fun, outdoors, wonderful discussion, I'm all in- I won't be around for ever.

PHILOSOPHY

Live simply
