30 year old from the US. Grew up in Washington, Georgia, Virginia Beach, and Germany. Did college in New York and moved to Hawaii from Austin, Texas. In August 2020 my fiancé and I left our jobs in Hawaii to start camping around the country out of our Prius at National Parks, National Forests, and such. I’m starting law school at UCLA this fall. Now we are vaccinated, staying at my parent’s place in Virginia, and looking to fit in some short trips around the East Coast before we move out to California in July. Love traveling, experiencing and learning about new cultures, and broadening and expanding my mind.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

This feels like a weirdly braggy section to me but I guess: a curious mind, an adventurous spirit, and a dry sense of humor? I can talk all day about books, movies, or music I’m passionate about, my philosophies and thoughts on life, death, mindfulness, social justice, soccer, baseball, or basketball (or not talk; I’m very mindful about not being a blowhard and have been told that I’m a good listener). My fiancé has spent most of her life in California and Hawai’i, so when we are visiting places along the East Coast I’m trying to take her to see the “it” things about certain places here that make them unique and interesting be it local sights, hikes, food, beer, or any number of other things.
