About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To eat everything, everywhere.

ABOUT ME

Hey guys!
Im a recent university grad on a mission to visit all the continents before Im 25. That includes Antarctica! Ive worked as a bartender throughout school and am a super social and friendly person. I love to learn new languages and would be happy to help you learn too.

On my Europe to do list:

Snowboard down the Alps (Alpe d'Huez preferably, the longest black run in the world)

Skydive somewhere!

Basejump in a big city somewhere!

Try every Belgium and German beer (in the same night?)

Paraglide around the Atlantic. (Check!)

Befriend likeminded people who want to join in these adventures :)

PHILOSOPHY

"The world is a book and those who don´t travel only read one page." - St. Augustine

"One should always be drunk. That’s the great thing; the only question. Not to feel the horrible burden of Time weighing on your shoulders and bowing you to the earth, you should be drunk without respite.
Drunk with what? With wine, with poetry, or with virtue, as you please. But get drunk." - Charles Baudelaire
