Chemical engineer traveling South America from texas. I left my job last year to travel South America and started off with the Peruvian Amazons working with Engineers without Borders, studied in Chile for a semester, backpacked through a few other countries on my way up. I love the ocean and diving and want to dedicate my career to helping sustainability practices. I also love eating new foods, beer, and taking a really long time at museums. After a year abroad, I am moving to Seattle and ready to start a new life working again! Currently a good quote to describe my mood is "Money is like gasoline, you don't want to run out of it during your road trip in life but you're not doing a tour of gas stations"

Algo increíble que he hecho

I solo traveled to Fiji and lived on an island working for a diving research project, but found out the project was really dishonest with finances. I decided to leave and live on another island as well as do shark diving until I had to come back and start a new job.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Would be more than happy to practice speaking in English with anyone. I am learning Brazilian Portuguese (took classes for 6 months for 2 times a week) and always like practicing when possible. Also can offer tutoring or help in math/chemistry.

I would like to take them out to eat a meal with me.
