CURRENT MISSION

Working Mount Rainier national park for the summer/fall. Backpacking South America this winter

ABOUT ME

I hitchhike as a form of travel, I write and read pretty voraciously. Music is very medicinal. I like to drink and have a smoke when hanging out, or getting to know somebody; and I'm usually pretty good at mirroring personalities.

I have worked as a goat herder, a park ranger, hitchhiked to New Orleans for Mardi Gras, took mushrooms on a desolate bluff overlooking the pacific in Big Sur, drove the entire California, Oregon and Washington coastline..
