About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. That is the purpose of life.

ABOUT ME

Current Peace Corps Volunteer living in the indigenous reservation Comarca Ngöbe-Bügle as a water engineer. I live in a a wood house and want to welcome anyone who wants to learn about the indigenous life while hiking the mountains of Panama! I don’t receive signal in my community, so needing time to organize and communicate is essential.

I will warn you, this isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s a hard life and not easily accessible. You’ll have to provide hammocks to sleep in and hang in my house and during the rainy season, the mud is really slick. But the people are incredible, and i love where I live. I just want to share their culture with the world!

PHILOSOPHY

Get out there. It's a big world.
