About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see as much as the world as possible and climb as many mountains, volcanos and peaks as a can.
ABOUT ME
I’m a laid back friendly guy who loves to socialize and have fun. I don’t take myself too seriously and I’m always up for trying new things, experiencing new cultures, cooking and trying new food and visiting places off the beaten track.
After graduating I decided to pack my bags and go traveling through Asia for 6 months, I loved it so much I decided to move to South Korea and work as an English teacher for two years. I then decided I need a change and packed my bags again for my next adventure....South America!! For the next six month I traveled from Brazil up to Colombia where I settled and began to teach English again before working as a business development consultant in technology. Almost 7 years flew by and I decided I needed a break so I decided to take a sabbatical and travel Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, I'm about 22 months into this trip now and heading through South America and down to Patagonia and up through Brazil
I love to travel, meet new people and take on new challenges.
PHILOSOPHY
Try everything at least once in life and again just to make sure :)
