CURRENT MISSION

"Passion is everything"

ABOUT ME

Man, this box is too small. Lived and went to school in Boston, MA and then moved to Europe for four years -- incredible life altering experience. Traveled to over 30 countries in about 36 months through 4 continents, so to say I like traveling is an understatement. Moved to Washington DC and loving it so far. I live life to the max without wasting a single second or opportunity. We're here for too little of a time to regret or miss anything -- make the most of everything you have, but keep striving for more!

PHILOSOPHY

I don't want to be arrogant sounding, but I don't want to live a normal life because, to put it bluntly, it's boring. I want to make a difference and also benefit from the risks I take everyday.

I don't play games and don't associate with those that do. Give it to me straight or go home -- I have too much living to do to waste my time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only couch surfed three times in traveling and they were a GREAT experience and met some great people. I'd invite anyone interested in the DC area to msg me if interested.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Can't pinpoint just one thing in my life, especially since I have a lot to living left. I would say Rome was incredible; scuba diving and partying in Ibiza, hiking and camping in Montenegro, bungee jumping in Switzerland, white water rafting/Inca Trail in Peru to see Machu Picchu, ziplining through the rain forests of Costa Rica, ice climbing and snowmobiling on Europe's largest glacier in Iceland. So far -- so good.
