About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Eating delicious foods around the world.

ABOUT ME

I am from California and I have lived in Panama, Ghana, and Japan.

I love the mountains and the desert. I also like exploring the nooks and crannies of city streets and random restaurants and bars.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that one of the ways to make our world a better place is to bring people together! Yay couchsurfing!

More randomly, I have a personal mission to try as many strange and interesting foods as possible.

So far I've eaten grasscutter (like a big rat) in Ghana, crickets and grasshoppers in Thailand (so yummy), fermented soybean (natto) in Japan, and lots of other things that seem delicious to me but strange to others (peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, anyone??)
