CURRENT MISSION

Being awesome at life

ABOUT ME

Didn't really do much traveling until the beginning of 2011, but I've been doing my best to make up for lost time. Spent six months living in Ireland for my job and it was a great experience.

I love craft beers, the outdoors (but prefer to sleep indoors), and sports (playing and watching). I realize that describes about 98% of the general American population (well, maybe not the craft beer part), but I like to think I'm more interesting than most of them. But I guess I'll let that up to you to judge. =)

I really enjoy meeting people from other countries and cultures. Seeing cool buildings and monuments is neat and all, but traveling is so much more enjoyable when you get to learn about the culture, people, and area from people who live there.

Oh, and I find science and technology fascinating, even when it's stuff I don't completely understand.

Intereses

I like a little bit of everything. My interests are eclectic. I'm a wealth of random knowledge: I tend to be one of those people who knows a little about a lot of stuff, but usually not a lot about any one subject. Which is kinda fun, cause I almost always can find something to talk about with someone.

Maybe that didn't really answer anything, but that's okay.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Hiked the Annapurna Circuit in 2012. It was, unsurprisingly, pretty sweet. I'd love to describe it here, but...there's just too much to talk about. Ask me about it sometime.

Also, living abroad was a wonderful and exciting experience. Never did it while in school, so I'm glad I stumbled across a chance to make it happen later on. The world is an amazing place and so are the people you meet.
