About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Empowering youth and playing with dogs. It's what I do.
Future mission: more traveling.

ABOUT ME

I love the outdoors, nature, animals and traveling. I'm pretty outgoing and am passionate about what I do!

Travel log:
Well, in 2007 I took a year off from school and to do a RTW trip! I spent a few days in Frankfurt,in Germany. Then I was in South Africa for 3 months, with trips to Swaziland and Mozambique thrown in as well. One month volunteering at Klipkop, an animal sanctuary, and the rest backpacking around the country, meeting amazing people, really loving life. At the end of May I flew to Nepal where I volunteered in Kathmandu in an orphanage.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed a mountain when I lived in alberta, canada.

I experienced cultures and countries that might as well have been another planet! amazing!

And surfed in mozambique and south africa with dolphins!

Arriving in south africa...the heat is amazing, the people are so friendly, and the hustle and bustle or north america is so quickly forgotten

Seeing the extremely rare African Wild Dog in Kruger National Park!

surfing everyday in Jeffrey's Bay, South Africa

Working with refugees & newcomers

Living in the Northwest Territories (norther Canada), loving the extremeness of it!

I built a recreational dog sled team....something I had dreamed of my whole life.

Nothing would be what it is, Because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary-wise -what it is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?
