About Me

I'm a pretty low-key, laid-back individual. I'm sociable but also easygoing. I am easy to please, so if you host me or are hosted by me, we’ll most likely get along!

My two main life philosophies are basically "everybody's just tryin' to be happy" and "life begins at the edge of your comfort zone."

I like to talk about social justice or political topics, play board games, go camping, hiking, cycling, and motorbiking, and I'm an amateur photographer.
