About Me

I feel more at home in a tent in the mountains than most places. Always up for a new experience with all of the amazing people out there in the world.

I want to share all the things in life that create love and joy... and pretend to be Indiana Jones as much as possible :)

"And then there is the most dangerous risk of all -- the risk of spending your life not doing what you want on the bet you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later."
