I'm a Texas teacher looking to explore the world and make some friends along the way. I'd consider myself a lifelong learner (I'm often listening to podcasts or reading). I try to keep an open-mind and know that there is something I can learn from everyone. I'm curious, vegan, an aspiring zero-waste minimalist, competitive athlete, son, brother, and Elementary school teacher.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Touched my nose with my tongue

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I'll just blurt out what comes to mind: We must listen and learn. Reflect/Introspection. Have compassion for yourself and others. Strangely, I believe that there are lessons to be learned from suffering and discomfort. I'm grappling with it haha I suppose we're made by the experiences we encounter and endure.
