About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I've always wanted to be free of mans control and live a life that is adventurous every step of the way. I would love to get off the grid of a years time and just survive SOME HOW lol! Yah and a lot of traveling lol!

ABOUT ME

I'm a very easy going 24 year old! I love traveling!!!! If I ever had any kind of money I would spend every dime of it on the thrill of the next adventure! I really appreciate art, culture, sports, sightseeing! I think that I'm the sort of person who wants to constantly push himself to a limit, once that limit has been met what else is there to do but rise it again!

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to it's fullest, cause you never know when you time is up! Never pass up a good opportunity and never ever ever let people dictate who you are and what you will be!

Why do I live? To show my appreciation to an amazing creator who had given me everything I have! To hear his voice, to live in his steps!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While I was living in Orlando/USA for a while a friend of mine suggested both of us doing some underwater caverns exploration. He told me about this place 20mi of Orland that had a hill but surrounding the hill were all these different caverns. As i had never done something like that I was thrilled at the thought. Before I knew it, I was thrusting myself into this cavern, the current was gushing tons and tons of water per minute! You had to swim at least 30 to find an opening to a cave! The hole itself was a little over a foot wide so scratches and bleeding was expected! we both made it throught the whole to walk up to a recently killed fish and it's extremeties all over the place. I guess the cave was some wild animals home, probably a otter or something! Just remembering that moments gives me chills! The undescribable feeling ones gets at new discoveries! The thrill, the adrenaling!! it was truly and experience of a life time!!
