Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Sail to Latin America in the ship I just got :)
ABOUT ME
I just got a ship and I'm making it my home. I'll be sailing down the Tennessee Tombigbee river to Mobile Alabama, then across the Gulf of Mexico to the Yucatan peninsula. I want to live in Belize for a few months, then I think I'll continue south. I have been taking the free online courses offered by MIT and Yale. While aboard my boat, I want to continue studying culture, globalization, Political Science and anything else that can help me understand the current state of the world. I'm not a loner at heart, though, and I hope I can meet a bunch of people along my path. I love to make friends and hear people's stories . Dancing and playing music are necessary for my soul an I hope I can find accomplices in that.
PHILOSOPHY
God gave you a blank book and a pen. Your move.
