About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See as much as possible, learn as much as possible, live life as crazily as possible

ABOUT ME

I'm outgoing and love to have fun. I like to make new friends, learn, and have fun. I'm quite impulsive and love spur of the moment plans. Happiest when I'm outside my comfort zone. I believe in trying everything once and in living conscientiously. Live life to the fullest and do your best not to regret. I run every day and love to play and watch football/soccer.

PHILOSOPHY

be open minded, live hard, live well.

Music, Movies, and Books

music...hmmm...I love it! I have a pretty eclectic and all over the place taste. according to my itunes I like electronic, alternative, hiphop, "world", jazz rock, avant garde, french and italian music (didn't know that was a genre!)

I'll read anything and usually have at least one book on my person.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing things - wow, there have been many. From walking across northern Spain, to freefalling from mountains in Canada on skis, to boulder jumping in South Africa, to hitch hiking in Mozambique, to morning tea on roof tops with new friends in Turkey...I've been awestruck over and over. Amazing people, mind blowing stories, great music, delicious nyama, and always another adventure. Never knowing what to think and when to think it is my favourite.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share what I know about the world (which isn't very much! I'm still learning!) but I can always help out with a good time. Swap jokes, stories, languages, etc....for days!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food, wine, good times!
