ABOUT ME
i'm generally a very laid-back person. i have my curious side, as well, which is probably what leads me to travel. i'm from very-small town USA, studied something called "peace studies" at a rural Indiana college. half way through college i decided to spend a year in Quito, Ecuador, returned to Indiana to graduate, and then studied political science in Caracas for a year.
PHILOSOPHY
In search of that ellusive "more just, more liveable world"

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue
recently visited the waterfalls of Iguazú and was blown away! hands down most amazing natural wonder i've ever experienced.
a shared smile, laugh and all around healthy connection with another person (or community of people)is another natural wonder i've been blessed to have experienced often.
