ABOUT ME
Chicago native, dying to get away from the Midwest plains region. I'm into everything relating to the outdoors. I want to delve into different cultures and experience something outside of what is familiar.
PHILOSOPHY
"Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living"
