One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My deployment to Afghanistan was nuts.... I've seen giant weed fields, and participated in some pretty crazy firefights. Iraq was a lot more mellow and I got to know a lot of great Iraqi people whose hospitality and kindness is unmatched - even though me and the buddies were the occupiers

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you a lot about my homestate, but I'd rather learn. I like learning Arabic and learning about the middle east

Two couches, 3 very 420 friendly roommates, and a dog.
