About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to meet new, exciting people who aren't like me!

ABOUT ME

hmmm. this is always the tough part. describing oneself is not an easy task. i am very openminded, i love other cultures, learning/discussing international politics and aid or the history surrounding current events. i am sort of a jack of all trades. i don't identify myself by what i do for a living, but rather what i know and what i do with the knowledge. i spent the last five years finishing up undegrad and grad school, and taking a hellish job that sucked the life out of me. i won't make that mistake again. i like living...so now i have a job that sends me all over the world (not always the most "desireable" of locations as some might put it) but i enjoy meeting new people, taking in the culture and the history. that's what it's all about.

PHILOSOPHY

Well, if I am going to do something, it has to be done right...so I don't waste time or money on something if I am only going to do it half-right. That follows through on everything: food, traveling, going out, etc. etc.
