About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hit the Earth - running

ABOUT ME

Trying to figure out what the hell I want to do and where I want to live! Cliche as it is I am laid back, really love to experience all I can and just really love the outdoors, the bigger the adventure the better. Ive surfed in a few places, jumped from some high waterfalls, sky dived etc but I would not mind more.

PHILOSOPHY

I am interested in everything, personal philosophy closely resembles the Tao, therefore there is no correct or incorrect but that things just are as they are. I try not to judge nor assume. Also everything always works out for the best no matter where life takes you!

Interests

Anything outside- gym, surfing, running (3 marathons), business finance, long board skating- bombing hills, spear fishing and then there are a ton of interests I really want to get into (kite surfing, scuba diving, hang gliding etc etc)!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Action, Mafia stories, documentaries, surf movies I find really powerful! I like reading biographies to find out where people have come from and hwo they came to be through hard work and determination to achieve what they believed. Also I think Calvin and Hobbes has it right!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving, Manchu Pichu, living off of coconuts in the middle of a deserted beach for 2 days!! Marathons, hiking Kauai'i, Hitchhiking all of Maui, bartending in Sweden without knowing a lick of Swedish! running tracks throughout all of South America, surfing in Hawaii, Brazil, Portugal, and even New Jersey, believe it or not those waves get heavy! Ah blah blah blah, if we meet-exchanging these stories would be very awesome

Teach, Learn, Share

I really want to learn about Microfinance and I hope one day to finally break into this field, I guess I am kind of like Seinfeld in a way I know a little bit about everything, but I definitely do not know a lot about one thing! I am really interested in helping 3rd world countries develop better and more efficient business systems - if I only knew where to look for employment. Venture Capitalism too I find very interesting!

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ireland, Peru, Portugal, Thailand

Countries I’ve Lived In

Sweden, United States
