About Me

ABOUT ME

My wife and I are fun-loving people who love different cultures and new experiences. We love to travel and have hosted people from different countries and all over the U.S. I graduated from college with a Bachelor's in Ancient History in 2010. In May of 2013, I will complete my Master's in Peacemaking and Conflict Studies with an emphasis in Restorative Justice. I'm a nice person, I love to show people around town, take them places, play games with them, and learn about their culture. My wife and I are pretty busy people so we might not be able to hang out that much, but we love hosting people!

Interests

Spending time with my amazing wife and family, being with my friends and taking trips, playing sports and board games, reading a good book and eating, dancing and singing, in general just loving life and living it to the fullest!
