About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To connect with as many people and see as many places as I can before I die.

ABOUT ME

I fell in love with the South American continent and its people after backpacking around for eight months. I was lucky enough to find work here, and I now call Bogota, Colombia home.

PHILOSOPHY
