CURRENT MISSION

Motorcycle journey from Boston to Panama

ABOUT ME

Im easy going, adaptable and have travelled a bunch. I've been fortunate to have lived in South East Asia for 8 years, Europe for 3 and and South America and the Caribbean for a total of 3 years as well.. I'm interested in meeting new people and learning about new places through their insight and expertise. I've also worked as a language teacher at high school and university and most recently directed a volunteer/study abroad program in the Dominican Republic for a couple of years. I enjoy cooking with/for friends and playing music.

Since moving back to the States I've been taking courses in Education and have decided to travel from Boston to Panama on a motorcycle that I just bought. I'll be traveling light and hope to camp as much as possible. The general trajectory is from Boston--> Lousiville-->New Orleans-->Austin--> Mexico (through Piedra Negra)--> Monterrey -->Puebla--> Oaxaca -->who knows!

Thanks ahead of time to anyone who can help me out at any leg of this voyage of mine...
