About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To collect stories from around the globe, both in person and from those I meet.

ABOUT ME

I love anything that offers a new experience or involves being outside - Rock climbing, mountain biking, waterskiing, horseback riding, surfing, rollerblading, hiking or just walking until I get lost. I also love meeting new people and learning from them. Currently, I'm taking 6 months to learn a bit more about myself and the world around me.

PHILOSOPHY

“Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit…what a ride!”
-HST
