ABOUT ME

Before my graduation of High school my life was a blur it became interesting after when I started to piece my life together figuring out where I wanted to be and who I wanted to be. I completed ten months of cityyear in Boston and then went on to four years in the Marine Corps. During the Marines and while in Iraq my eyes were opened after I started reading books about the history of the the United States. I realized that I needed to get out and educate myself instead of living within a world of simplicity where everything is handed to you and you live in a micromanaged world. I started going to college but more importantly I started learning in and out of college. I never want to be restricted ever again. I live my life accourding to what interests me and what excites me. I finally began my long awaited carear of mountain climbing and have been to the WHite mnts in New Hampshire the Rockies in Colorado and Montana, The Andes in Colombia Ecuador and Peru. I love the adventure of traveling but can only handle it in doses of a month or two at the max. I grow off the stability of my home life in Boston and reaching my goal of completing college. Traveling will never be stifled by finacial, economical or physical reasons because I hear all the excuses people have for continuing their grinding daily occupations instead of living out their dreams and I feel that I have been provided a unique opportunity to resist that.

PHILOSOPHY

Everyday I create my own existance and I extract the beauty that exists within each day of my life.

Música, películas y libros

In some ways I'm simple and music is one of those ways. I can turn on the radio and be content with rolling the dial to something that speaks to me.
Most of the time I enjoy non fiction because it helps me to understand some particular part of real life. But I became enamored with Harry Potter and have realized that truly creative masterpieces whether books or movies like Pirates of the Carribean tickle my imagination so much I can't resist them.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I've seen I think over 15 countries and 35 states. Went across the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea and Suez Canal on a ship. Have also witnessed the Panama Canal. I have climbed to about 18000 feet on a glacier and ran my first 4 Marathons. Rode a bicycle 3000 miles across the U.S.
