ABOUT ME

I believe that everyone has something interesting and wonderful to offer the world and traveling has allowed me to see the best side of humanity. Forever grateful for all my CS hosts and friends I have met who are now like family.

I really enjoy hiking and camping, and have hiked to the tallest point in my city, county, as well as several US States.

I prefer off the beaten path places and spending time with locals learning about their history, culture, traditions, and food.

I am working on being anti-racist and dismantling my own internalized racism. I am pro-union, believe in minimizing waste and plastic usage, and think that housing, education, and healthcare are fundamental rights.

PHILOSOPHY

Without struggle, there is no progress.
Live to travel, travel to live.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

In one dive, saw at least 5 manta rays and a whale shark, all in one place. Was my longest and most memorable dive (67 minutes). Hiked northern part of ACT - Thorong La pass and made it to EBC in May 2024.

教，学，和分享

Google Maps GPS works without data plan so you can still navigate without internet.

Just buy a local SIM card with data. It's so worth it.

I'd love to learn about people's personal experiences regarding places they've traveled. What they loved and hated there. What sights they saw, what foods they ate.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can cook for you, share interesting stories, or bring a bottle (wine, gin, whiskey, vodka).
