CURRENT MISSION

To break out of my comfort zone and explore other cultures in the world. I am very excited for my year long journey......

ABOUT ME

Well, my life was pretty normal for American standards. I grew up in a middle income family and attended school and University...afterwards I joined the rat race and found myself stuck in a cubicle for 3 years wondering what my life´s purpose was. Hahah..I still do not know my life´s purpose, however, I realized that I needed a change. I thought long and hard about what I needed and realized that there was an entire world out there that I did not know about. Everytime I thought about traveling I got excited, so I made my decision to start saving my money for a Round the World Trip. I am a pretty open-minded person and enjoy learning about new cultures and meeting new people. If you are ever in Austin (when I am not traveling) I would love to show you my city....I would also love to get to know your city as well. Happy travels and please be safe!

PHILOSOPHY

I try not to sweat the small stuff and live in the present.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Being from Austin, TX you don´t see many natural events take place.
I saw an avalanche when I was hiking the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu. I was not in an area of danger, but it was an amazing site to see and I will never forget it.
I also saw an active volcano in Baños, Ecuador....it was so neat to see something that I have only witnessed on TV!
