CURRENT MISSION

Figure out how I can combine travel with earning a living . . .

ABOUT ME

I am a haole from Hawaii, who always enjoys meeting people and hearing their story. While I try to keep up with politics and world news, I am mostly interested in the more creative aspects of life, like music, art, philosophy, culture, and writing. I like to go out and do the fun active things that my current location has to offer, whether it be surfing, hiking, kayaking, checking our festivals, and whatever else is going on.

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem! I want to enjoy life as much as possible. This means meeting good people, laughing, relaxing, and experiencing as much of the world as I can. I have some strong ethical feelings about certain aspects of the world, and I would like to explore ways to improve things, like developing a sustainable economy.

Interests

I would really like to perfect Spanish, and then move on to a new challenge.

I like to cook and try new kinds of food. I know all kinds of tasty hawaiian recipes (my home.) I like paddling and kayaking, writing, painting, tubing, checking out new music and going to shows, and film is great.
