Hey! My name is Jake Bash and I'm a travel-aholic. I have come to terms with the fact that I'm addicted to culture. I live for new experiences. Whether it's trying new foods, seeing new sights or meeting new people; I'm game. I'm a very active guy. I enjoy hiking, camping, fishing, boating and am scuba certified. I work full time and go to school full time and play in a Wednesday night open mic band. Nothing too serious, just cheesy covers and a few glasses of wine, haha. I was raised to be polite and considerate, and expect the same of others. Trying to put some good back in the world one adventure at a time. Thanks for reading!
