CURRENT MISSION

To see how far I can travel with my savings.

ABOUT ME

I'm 23 years old and finally done with my Bachelors Degree. Before I jump into the rat-race I have to see everything I can in one year off. I work as a server in San Francisco to save up during busy season and travel in the off-season - I love the outdoors and am convinced that once I get going I won't be coming back. Love to read, love to draw, love to meet people and I'm always learning new stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no meaning but what you make it.
