CURRENT MISSION

learn better Spanish

ABOUT ME

I love spending time with kind and passionate people & listening to stories. I love being outdoors and getting my hands dirty (have picked fruit and worked with sheep & cattle) and out on the ocean. I want to travel and enjoy life, no time limits...no places I don't want to go...

PHILOSOPHY

Consume less, build relationships.
