I was born and raised in the beautiful Pacific Northwest of Washington State (USA) and come from a very large Norwegian/Swedish family. I just graduated from Western Washington University with degrees in marketing and communications and can't wait set sail and explore the world. I'm an adventurous and spontaneous guy with an open heart and mind, which is why I love meeting new people and gaining valuable experiences wherever I go.
