ABOUT ME

I traveled a lot with my family when I was younger and have been itching to get out on my own for some time now. I just graduated from ASU and am tired of having my nose in the books - but I do love those books so very much. My friend, Cody, and I are backpacking around South America from July 1st, 2010 to December 2010. We don't have return flights home yet, so I'm not quite sure about the return date.

In my free time, I love to rock climb, try to play chess, analyze the depths of reality with my close friends - which usually means just gossip - and read and write fiction.

PHILOSOPHY
