I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona and started moving around the state when I was 18. I've always loved being outdoors whether it was camping, hiking, bicycling, concerts or taking my truck out to the desert for a little fun. After turning 22, I was seeking new adventures and found myself moving to Long Beach, California, transfering through PF Changs, my job at the time. Living along the beach and just a bicycle ride away was an awesome experience. One of the most memorable things about Long Beach was how diverse the culture was through in and through out. Living in it for almost 3 years got me initially thinking about international travels. Itching for another small move and my father living in Portland area gave me a perfect excuse which is the most beautiful place I've lived in so far. After moving to Portland and working in the restaurant industry, I met and have talked to many people from all over the world which furthered my desire to travel. A current roommate of mine recommended a book titled "Vagabonding" that inspired me to finally buy my one way flight to start this adventure in Ireland and the UK. This all finalized my decision for the leap into international travels so here I am! :)
