CURRENT MISSION

I am currently planning on backpacking 3-4 months through Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, and Peru. I am passionate about meeting people both local and fellow backpackers with diverse backgrounds and experiences. One of my main goals of traveling is to leave my comfort zone on a daily basis, and become fluent in Spanish.

ABOUT ME

I was once a competitive long-distance runner in New Mexico. I have since retired, although I still love going for runs. I am now pursuing medical school to become a doctor. In the meantime I have worked as a bartender at a local microbrewery in Albuquerque, as well as pursued my passion for photography in my spare time. I am a very easy going person, who is rarely serious, but I love having fruitful conversations as well.

PHILOSOPHY

I am very open-minded, and love how diverse and unique human beings can be.
