A good friend and I are heading up from Oregon to visit British Columbia to go mountain biking, hiking, and attend Element Music Festival! We would love to meet some locals to show us some good biking, hiking, or whatever!

ABOUT ME

I love to seek out new experiences and unique situations!

I try to smile and laugh as often as possible. Being happy is an obvious and important quality in my life.

I'm an active guy. I love hiking, scuba diving, rock climbing, riding motorcycles, snowboarding, anything active really. I can usually find a way to enjoy and appreciate whatever situation I am in.

PHILOSOPHY

I just want to enjoy my life to the fullest. I won't waste my time with negativity and drama. I want to always be smiling. I feel a personal responsibility to learn and explore as much as I can while I'm breathing.
