ABOUT ME

Hey~ I'm 23, love exploring, traveling, anime, video games, experiencing new things, and generally having fun and enjoying nature.
I love to sing and listen to a multitude of music as well~
I was born/raised and currently live on the island of Maui, Hawaii, USA.
I'm just finishing up my first degree at UHMC.
I've been an exchange student to Thailand, and a temporary resident of Japan.
I'm an optimistic realist and selfishly selfless~
I'm both relaxed and laid back yet excitable and bouncy.
I'm always up for adventure.
Tabachu and Magical Catboy are two of my nicknames; I think they fit me perfectly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Wading and playing in the crystal clear and swiftly flowing waters of the Unseen Canal in Thailand. The canal had a sandy, shell-y bottom and was lined with trees reaching their roots in for a drink. It was exhilarating and absolutely beautiful.

-Wandering about Japan in the middle of autumn. And later--on bicycles--riding through sprawling rice fields in the crisp air of winter night. In the company of new gapper friends.

-Climbing up a series of waterfalls in the near pitch dark of an underground lavatube.

-The plain simple life wonders of eating onion rings or ice cream, or enjoying time with excellent company.
