About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to experience and see as much as life as possible

ABOUT ME

I started my own small business putting on races a couple years ago its a great branching off from running lots of them myself.

I did a lot of running races and running in general. I guess I can call myself a marathoner after doing about a dozen marathons and ultra marathons over the past 5 years. I enjoy outdoor sports in general such as: hiking, diving, mountain biking, swimming, etc.

I am very much interested in spirituality and learning as much as I can from others. I like the mysterious aspects of life.

My friend told me about this site. I think this is the best idea I have ever seen and can open up the world to those who cant really afford to stay in hotels or hostels.

I look forward to traveling and meeting others and feel very lucky to be able to do so.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to experience as much as possible and to be the best person I can possibly be with kindness, compassion, empathy and respect for others. With my job and life my mission in life is service to others.
