CURRENT MISSION

To continuously become lost without a cellphone or money.

ABOUT ME

I work at the Library of Congress, just got to DC from North Carolina. Sort of sad to be far from friends, but living in DC is going to be awesome.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't understand people that say, 'oh, this town is so boring, there's nothing to do here'. What do they mean by that? What were they planning on doing? I always envision a skating rink when people say that, but even in towns with a skating rink, they are not as full as you would imagine.

My point. Many expect a town or city to satisfy them, when truly the only way to experience a place is to saturate yourself among the people that live there! and Give!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a moment after I woke up from a off-road vehicle accident where I realized that everyday henceforth was an extra day given to me that I could spend in incredible luxury. I was never so thankful.

Teach, Learn, Share

My gift is to find myself in interesting predicaments. Also, I live really close to the Mall (2 blocks). Great for touring.
