CURRENT MISSION

I love to travel, meet new people, hear their stories and have new experiences!

ABOUT ME

Proud Gay world citizen, originally from New York, living in Chicago, traveling anywhere and everywhere. I am an outgoing, optimistic, fun, funny, spontaneous, open-minded type of guy looking to do as much as I can on my short time on earth! I have amazing friends and family that cant be replaced! I'm single, enjoying life and trying to transform the world around me into a more accepting place. I love the journey as much as the destination. Seriously from planes, trains to automobiles, I love moving forward.

PHILOSOPHY

Fear cannot touch me.
It can only taunt me,
It cannot take me,
Just tell me where to go.
I can either follow,
Or stay in my bed.
I can hold on
To the things that I know.
The dead stay dead,
They cannot walk.
The shadows are darkness.
And darkness cannot talk.

~ Density of Souls

Algo increíble que he hecho

I taught a nun how to hackysack, I've gotten lost in Scotland for 3 hrs in a playground, Learned about Border Awareness in Mexico, Danced the night away in Brighton, UK, danced, sang and smoked at Osheaga music fest in Montreal, ran away to LA by driving with strangers from Chicago 3 days before Christmas.

I've met the most amazing people by the most amazing circumstances.

Oh? You said one thing? Then the most amazing thing is living my life by my own rules. ;p

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I've learned how to listen to others patiently. Everyone needs a ear once in a while, you just have to know how to listen.

I'm open to learn anything.
