CURRENT MISSION

Expand my mind by visiting and experiencing other cultures from all over the world.

ABOUT ME

Hey there! I'm a California boy born and raised in San Diego.

I've always believed that this big world we live in needs to be explored and experienced as much as possible. I started off traveling by going to Louisiana and Colorado. In the Fall of 2014, I went to Southern France in Toulouse, where I lived for four months while studying abroad. In the process, I traveled around Western Europe, grew more as an individual, and made many great friends which allowed me to see the world from another culture's perspective.

I love meeting new people, learning about other cultures, and just having a nice conversation, so please, don't hesitate to contact me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being able to live and study abroad in a country on the opposite side of where I grew up, pushing my body and mind beyond the limits during my endurance running events, climbing some nice mountains on some hikes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Respect. If there's one common compliment I seem to get is my ability to naturally blend into the environment I'm in regardless of the culture and situation, so I feel I could share some interesting stories and jokes!
