CURRENT MISSION

Well, this will be quick. Last year I did a trip through Chile and Argentina, mainly all Patagonia, I haven't been on here since. But, last week I flew into phoenix to buy a motorcycle and am currently storm dodging my way back to bend Oregon. My bud in flagstaff suggested I get back on and meet some folks. Hell yeah! So, planning to hit the coast around Oxnard and ride to Newport Oregon. Meet good people, Climb, Run,

ABOUT ME

I'm taking an extended travel and climbing break from work. I hope to travel, run, climb, drink tea in the desert and watch sunrises for the next few months.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm generally optimistic and pro-appreciation of the moment! I'm a big fan of people, place, and experience.

I'm pretty easy-going with a slightly cynical side when it comes to politics and economies.
