About Me
ABOUT ME
I am an outgoing, hardworking, fun loving, spontaneuos ball of fire. I lived in Spain from September to may '07-'08 and I saw so many different places and learned about so many different cultures, it was amazing. I love the outdoors more than words can say. My two affictions are snowboarding and mountainbiking, next to fly fishing and traveling. I LOVE FOOD!!!!!! I am interested in trying new things and love to listen to people talk; I love a good story! I have worked too much for only being 21 years old, so I decided to take some time off before jumping into a career. I get along with all sorts, I tend to like the people that I can't figure out more than unoriginal people; who doesn't! I am super trustworthy as my life principles are what ever you do to others will be done unto you. I do my best to avoid the more "worldy" endulgances, (but I also feel that life is too short to be too hard on yourself, it's more important to do the best you can do with what yu have, and not to judge others). Well other than all that I just really like to enjoy the fruits of my labor, and inspire others to do the same!
PHILOSOPHY
That you should do unto others as you would have them do unto you, and EAT EVERYTHING YOU CAN!

Music, Movies, and Books
Too many to talk about, but I am obsessed with Bjork, my favorite books...Angela's Ashes, Wrinkle in Time, Stardust, Tell Me Your Dreams, and anything by Jimmy Santiago Baca, Bakunin, Emma Goldman, Kropotkin...Movies, I can't narrow that down, I recently saw that "Silk" movie, and I definitely cried, but I really enjoy documentaries and the travel channel...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing I have seen would have to be when I was in Morocco in the mountains and it was snowing and their were monkies jumping all over us! It was splendid, the first snowflake I had seen since November was in Africa...
The most amazing thing I have done would be going to Nicaragua to volunteer with my uncle as a translator while he gave free dental work to the poor kids in the city. I witnessed hundereds of kids confidence boost at the hands of my uncle...priceless
Teach, Learn, Share
I enjoy people who have done more and seen more and lived more than I have or will ever; which is pretty much the entire population of the Earth. I tend to get along with people who are much older than I am, which works out nicely because they have more stories that interest me anyways.
