CURRENT MISSION

Travel and enjoy life to the fullest

ABOUT ME

My name is Mike. I am a 26 year old American from St. Louis, Missouri. I studied Finance and Banking with an emphasis in Real Estate, but my true passion and experience is in International Business and Study Abroad! After graduating from the University of Missouri, I packed up my life into a backpack and booked a 1-way ticket to Europe. My home away from home was the wonderful city of Prague. For 18 months I was working at the Czech University of Life Sciences-Prague teaching Finance and English. After back packing for 3 months around Europe I moved back to St. Louis where I worked on a contract at Wells Fargo. Then I saved up money and booked a 1 way flight out to Sydney and worked/traveled for 6 months. Currently I'm in South Korea studying my MBA. I have traveled to 50+ countries and plan on trying to see every country in the world before I die. But the experiences, friends and stories I have made on the way are the best parts of traveling! My addictions are traveling, music, friends, and sports.

Some more information about me:
I have played sports my whole life (basketball, volleyball, soccer, baseball...etc) My main sport was Volleyball and have competed at my University as well. Also, I enjoy drinking new drinks and discovering new foods.

PHILOSOPHY

Just try to be the nicest all around person you can be while enjoying life to the fullest. A smile and positive attitude are amazing things!
