CURRENT MISSION

to have adventures all over the world and experience as much as i can

ABOUT ME

i have a passion for music and romping in the wilderness and driving fast on open roads with the windows open and music thumping. i understand what it means to drink cheap beer on the river in the sun, to scramble on rocks in red canyons, to meander through redwoods, to get covered in playa dust while watching the sun rise through brilliant pink orange red clouds... i understand how a perfect pop song can tug at your heart... i'm passionate and i love my friends with all my heart and i believe that life is about experiencing every crazy thing you can and taking chances and not always doing the things that you're expected to do...
