ABOUT ME

I'm an optimistic and adventurous spirit that loves all of the unique experiences that life has to offer. I'm curious about the world and want to see it with my own eyes and understand it with my own thoughts.

I'm out-going and flexible, so I'm up for almost anything. I love stepping into peoples unique lives for at least a moment and I look forward to each new experience.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that life is about learning, understanding, and experiencing all that you possibly can.

音乐、电影和书籍

I listen to a wide varoiety of music. For an example of the of music I enjoy try listening to radioparadise.com - their playlist is excellent and very eclectic, though I would turn up the energy more often if I were the DJ.

As for books, I love to learn so I am more interested in fiction relating to places or something else revealing about life, not just a plot line. Favorite Author John Steinbeck. Try East of Eden.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I also spent almost a year and a half traveling from the US down to the bottom of South America and back , all by land and sea. It was a fascinating experience and unforgettable adventure.

I also hitch-hiked up through Norway staying with friendly families and travelers along the way. I made it past the Arctic Circle, to the beautiful Lofoton Islands and all the way to the eerie landscape of Northcape overlooking the Arctic Ocean.

教，学，和分享

If you buy fake coins in Turkey make sure you put them in your checked luggage or they could land you in jail just as you are leaving the country. If the coins look good enough you could be arrested for smuggling antiquities out of the country. Trust me, I learned the hard way but it turned out to be one of the greatest experiences of my trip.
