The beach is my favorite place to be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked around the entire edge of the Big Island, going counterclockwise. I started in Kona, then to the beach in Hookena, went down to South Point, up to see Kilauea crater, Pahoa, Hilo, Honokaa, Hawi, and back down through Waikoloa back to Kona. I saw every part of the Island and enjoyed every area, each with it's own unique climates and cultures. That leg of the trip took two weeks. I ended up doing another circle before I left the Island :]

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you all I know about packing efficiently, lightweight backpacking, longterm backpacking, bartending, craft beer (asheville's beer heaven), weight training and dieting, camping, being a business owner, being a home owner, cooking, hanging a hammock, making campfire food delicious, and lots more handy things.
