CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

26 year old guy from the bay area who enjoys good company and trying new things. I consider myself a rock climber on a hiatus and am an avid camper. I always try to push myself out of my comfort zone because I tend to grow as a person when I do.

I studied abroad in London for 5 months in 2005 which provided me with a great jumping off point to the rest of Europe.

I just recently returned from an amazing trip volunteering in Armenia and afterwords I traveled (and ate my way) through Egypt, Lebanon, Thailand, and Laos.

PHILOSOPHY
