About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To always have an open mind, and except fellow travelers as friends of mine

ABOUT ME

I love to travel. I have backpacked through Asia, Africa, Australia and have lived in Palau and Japan. While in Africa I met a couple that was on a bicycle trip from South Africa to Egypt and right then I was hooked. Upon returning to the states I bought a touring bicycling and moved to Denver. I worked as a commercial diver for a while, putting money away to finance a huge bike trip. I just finished a bicycle touring trip through Florida. I rode my bicycle over 1000 miles in three weeks. My goal trip is from Alaska to Argentina. As of 2015 I moved to Anchorage, Alaska and am working in Alaska as a registered nurse. I'm planning on biking from Anchorage to Tuktoyuktuk, NWT then to Key West, Florida starting June 2018..

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind and respectful
