Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To expand my traveling to outside the United States, to experience beautiful places, amazing cultures, and wonderful people.
ABOUT ME
I am all about interactions. I want to learn everything I can about people. Conversations are my strong suit, the best nights of my life are sitting around with individuals, learning about why and who they are. With these conversations I have built some amazing relationships and became who I am because of them, I have always dreamed about traveling the world and experiencing different and vibrant cultures, to see beautiful and amazing things. It is time to fulfill that dream and I am extremely excited.
I am an avid outdoors man, my father took me camping or back packing every month he could growing up. I have grown up in the wonderful Northwest of the United States with rivers and mountains all around me. One of my main goals is to experience the different environments the world has to offer.
PHILOSOPHY
That I hardly know anything and its my mission to learn and experience anything and everything I can. To learn from people with an open mind to achieve a greater understanding of the world.
