About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience new places, ideas, people and travel as much as possible. Want to see as much of the beautiful world while I can.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in upstate new york in a small mountain town. After finishing college in 2009 and realizing I had no idea what I wanted to do in life I decided to start traveling as much as possible. 5 years later and I have been all over the world. I am going back to school in September for homeopathic medicine because I really feel that it will be a useful took in my life and those around me.

PHILOSOPHY

Contemplating nature and taking part of it.
Simple things are the best...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None on here. But I haven't had my own place in 5 years so I have been more of a couch/bed surfer...but always through friends not the internet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I would have to say the most amazing thing I have ever done was to scuba dive in Borneo. The amount of marine life was amazing- turtles, sharks, rays etc. And the hostel was built on stilts over the water. It really lived out my cast away fantasies.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have travelled all over the world the past 5 years- 18 countries in total. But, in this day and age I think that just being an extensive traveller is not much to offer, since one can now travel pretty much anywhere with a heightened sense of comfort. I think what I can offer is a different insight into being a young person in the United States today and have a much different viewpoint then expressed my my fellow Americans....
