CURRENT MISSION

To always make the best of any situation, to be cultured more than even the stinkiest of cheeses, and to make firiends wherever I may roam.

ABOUT ME

Lets see here
I'm currently a Natural Resources Recreation and Tourism major at CSU, after that I'm hoping to get my MSBA in sustainable business. I'm a major travel junkie and I'm always itchin' for a new place to experience, whether it's around the corner or around the world. I've spent the last couple years working as a guide, either on the rain forest trails or on the river. I'm currently a city coordinator for a skate park just outside of Portland, saving up for another big trip, or several small ones.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is the possibility of a dream that makes life interesting. You can choose between being a victim of destiny or an adventurer who is fighting for something important."- Paulo Coelho
For the most part, I would like to be traveling more than planning my next travel, but we all have to squeeze the fruit to get the juice.

Interests

World Travel, Cultures, Nutrition, Meeting cool new people, catching up with old ones. I love the whitewater, camping, listening to some jimmy buffet, having a good brew, vintage clothes, chowin down on some burnt hotdogs, freezing my ass off in my sleeping bag under the stars, the whole thing. As long as I've got some nice chill people to hang out with, I'm pretty happy
