About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

There’s two of us traveling, Gina and JC. Currently planning a trip to Arizona. I'm the Head Brewer for a local craft brewery. I graduated from WSU’s Fermentation Science program (Go Cougs!) with a degree in enology and plant physiology and minors in Biochem and chemistry. I’m a former child counselor and wildland firefighter, so the Universe has blessed me with many experiences. Gina works in the medical field.

A fault or flaw, but I meet people with an open heart. I like to meet new people from all walks. I love to learn, and take a little from each person I meet.

PHILOSOPHY

'Be kinder than necessary 'cause everyone you meet is fighting some sort of battle.'

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly documentaries, foreign and any independent films.
Too many books to mention, text books now.

I listen to everything!
I have an eclectic taste in music. Chances are I might like what you are listening to in your ipod. Currently listening to a lot of Seu Jorge.

Argentine rock. Sadly Spanish Rock is dead. =(

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Fighting wildland fires in the North Cascades, Rocky Mountains and Black Hills. So far nothing has compared to the adrenaline and satisfaction you get from fighting a fire uphill in 115 degree weather.

Hiking and trail running La Sierra Madre with my pops--unbelievable hike as the topography went from tropical jungle to forest. AMAZING!!!

The last conversation I had with my grandpa before cancer put him to rest.

Teach, Learn, Share

Try to not be oblivious to social queues and don't forget to smile.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A warm, dry place to sleep, a beer and some cuddle time with my pup.

Aruba, Canada, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Venezuela
