CURRENT MISSION

Complete university internship in Bangladesh, then motorcycle from Vladivostok to France and learn some Russian along the way

ABOUT ME

I am 28 yrs of age. I am kind unpretentious and have a sense of humour. I have been living in Dhaka, Bangladesh, since January, as part of a university internship program. On June 20th I fly to Vladivostok to begin my longest road trip yet - a motorcycle ride from Vladivostok to France. Wish me luck and keep me in your thoughts and/or prayers.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm not sure yet, but remember traditional knowledge is valuable.
