Originally from New Jersey, I’ve spent the last five or so years living, working, and studying in Boston, MA, and recently left the city to figure out what I want out of life. Trying to travel a bit now as I am finally free of all those prior obligations!

Philosophy as follows: Broke ass college student just trying to see the world and meet like-minded people. Trying to improve myself along the way, and I attribute a huge part of self development to reflecting not only on yourself but also the world around you. Currently on a journey of self-growth and improvement. I’m interested in learning about other people’s cultures, religions, lifeways, hobbies, etc - the way I see it, nothing is off limits or uninteresting as long as it’s new to me! We are all connected globally through the human condition and it’s important to see the world through someone else’s eyes. 🤗

Looking to meet other genuine humans that like traveling and exploring other cultures - please do NOT treat this app like tinder!!! I REPEAT- NOT LOOKING FOR A RELATIONSHIP/SOMETHING PHYSICAL! If you read this and agree to it, start your convo with your favorite kind of bagel - make sure it’s in the first couple words of your message or else I will automatically delete it. :) 🥯
