CURRENT MISSION

My girlfriend is German. I am a U.S. citizen. We fell in love in Nepal 3 and a half years ago. We've travelled in Europe, and extensively in South America and the U.S. We are moving to New Zealand to live and work.

ABOUT ME

My name is Scott Cramer and I am 27 years old. I have been blessed in my life to travel the world extensively, experiencing breathtaking places, encountering inspiring people and cultures, and witnessing exotic wildlife in their natural habitats. I have volunteered in Eastern Europe, West Africa, and Southeast Asia, spent a year working in Nepal for a responsible tourism company, backpacked 10,000 miles through South America, and trekked in the Himalayas, Andes, Alps, Patagonia, Badlands, Yosemite, Tetons, Rockies, Canyonlands, Grand Canyon, Cascades, Pacific Crest Trail, Appalachian Trail, Catskills, Gunks, Blue Ridge, and Long Trail. I am currently in the process of moving to New Zealand with my German girlfriend. I am the owner/photographer of a photography company 5050photography.org. 5050 splits all profits with Humanitarian, Environment, and Wildlife charities.
