CURRENT MISSION

Let the world continue to humble me.

ABOUT ME

I am a 22 year old traveler just back from a 6 month trip to Central America. I love to meet new people and explore new places. I am a student of life: I will learn something every day until the day I die. Traveling, for me, is all about gaining perspective. What does the world look like from over here?

Great easy backpacking meals:
#1: Instant Stuffing. It's not just for thanksgiving any more. If it's cold there is nothing better then the stick-to-your-sides warmth, carbs, and protein of instant stuffing.
#2: Moose Goo. You've got to taste it to believe it. Complex and simple carbs, all in one squeeze tube. Eat straight, put on bread or pita with a slice of cheese, or add it like mustard on to your favorite backpacking sandwich. Find the original recipe here: http://www.ultralightbackpacker.com/moosegoo.html. My favorite addition - instead of flour, put in some pancake batter - same consistency and more flavor!

One day, you should ask me how to make Latkes.
