Currently working at a restaurant and living in employer provided housing. Im pretty relaxed, but work evenings/nights. Im fond of walkingz talking, and hiking. I love meeting new people and talking about life, but sometimes i dont know what to say. Overall, I take life slow and rarely rush towards anything. I like honest open conversation. I love nature and appreciate silence in the mountains. So for me travel is about people and seeing new places.

In the US i participated in language groups during the week. Usually French, Spanish, and Russian groups. Ive met some awesome and nice people there.
