CURRENT MISSION

Be on time.

ABOUT ME

I am currently in Washington D.C. after a stint in Afghanistan and a few years in Portland, OR. I am hoping to be back on the West Coast in a few years, but first I have to tie up some loose ends on this side of the country so I can be more mobile (school, career, etc.)

I think I want to save my money and rent a flat in Southeast Asia for a few years. :)

PHILOSOPHY

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
