About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I just want to leave the places I travel a little better than how I found them and meet some amazing people along the way

ABOUT ME

From D.C after college lived in Japan for w hile before taking a job with the Japanese embassy back home. Got bored, rode my bike across the country then started working at a bike shop. Eventually I got bored of that and got into Law School so here I am!

PHILOSOPHY

Like I said before. I feel as a person who has access to technology, relative affluence, and comfortable living conditions, that I have an obligation to leave this world a little bit better than I found it. I think responsible travelling and working in countries other travellers might overlook allows you to assimilate the cultural differences and compare the similarities that make these places unique. Those are the things that really make your life interesting.
