ABOUT ME

i was exposed to travel at a young age, when my dad would take me on his business trips all over the states. it had a lasting effect on me. i plan to live an adventurous life, and experience many different lifestyles, areas of the world, jobs, hobbies, climates, etc. i tend to get bored with places easily, but not people. i am difficult to get to know, but have a group of friends who are closer than any i've known.

i'm lucky enough to have a job that allows me to travel quite a bit, though i don't plan to keep it for many years. i recently moved to san diego and am captivated by this place. my life is so much more relaxed and i am meeting so many great/interesting people. california is the third state i have lived in this year.. i'm moving at a decent pace

PHILOSOPHY

if we do not offer ourselves to the unknown, our senses dull. our world becomes small and we lose our sense of wonder. our eyes will not lift to the horizon; our ears will not hear the sounds around us. we pass our days in a routine that is both comfortable and limiting. we soon wake up to find we have lost our dreams in order to protect our days. fear of the unknown and the lure of comfortable space will conspire to keep you from taking the chances you should take.
