CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world.. live, learn, teach.

ABOUT ME

I am finally doing it. Leaving everything behind to answer that voice that has been telling me to travel. I am very excited about my journey, although intimidated because I will be traveling alone.
I am a very easy going, positive person. I like to find the best in people. I believe you only live once and should spend that time doing what you love.
I study wine for a living and love to try all different kinds of food. I LOVE sake and can't wait to get back to Japan to visit some breweries. I am very excited to learn everything I can across the world in these areas. I also love live music of any kind.
Update: I have actually been living in Cambodia for the past six years. I teach here and also go to uni online. I've become very interested in Sociology and everything related. Looking for some good conversations.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that life is too short to stay in your box doing the same thing every day simply because it is "safe" or "comfortable". I mesh well with travelers, seekers... people who are willing to risk it all to find whatever it is they need in this world. I am inspired by people who live with passion.
