About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To play, cook, and enjoy life with creative and interested people all around the world.

ABOUT ME

Aaron - I consider myself to be a very thoughtful and playful person. I love good conversation and good food. I share well with others and I don't need a lot of personal space.

I love the outdoors. For the last 5 years I have been guiding inner-city youth on outdoor adventures. I love spending time in nature and I love introducing people to beautiful natural places. I have spent many summers living in the Sierra Nevada and Yosemite feels like home to me.

I have traveled to Central America, South America, and the Middle East. As a traveler I enjoy spending time getting know the locals and I try to stay away from the "gringo" trail.
