About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Figure out how to spend my life, one day at a time.

ABOUT ME

I get restless when I don´t leave the country for more that a couple months, and I am in constant need of change and exposure.
There is nothing I enjoy more than understanding a different way of living and learning how others pass their days.
Although I am currently trying to perfect my Spanish, I have much desire to continue learning languages, and my next one will likely be Portugese or German, or both!

PHILOSOPHY

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams, live the life you've imagined.
-H.D.Thoreau

Music, Movies, and Books

I usually just play all my music on shuffle. I enjoy lots of different music from all over the world, dub reggae, house, minimal, anything danceable, acoustic, modern rock, indie, hip hop, even classical, I really listen to everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently rode a camel into the desert in Morocco with indigenous Berber guides. We made a tent site and they cooked us dinner in the sand. After the nomad tents were all set up we spent the night around a fire while they played music on buckets and sang songs in Berber. We all danced the night away trying to learn the words and I had the time of my life.
