Overview
About Me
I just moved to the Bay Area. Before I settle in one neighborhood, I want to surf around and get to know the City.
Looking forward to meeting you!
ABOUT ME
I'm on this site looking for adventure. I love to travel, but my free time doesn't always line up with my free time. So, it'd be nice to do my version of cheap jet-setting and arrive in a city w/at least one friend.
I absolutely love cities! I'm going to school to be an urban planner. I feel that traveling and seeing other ways of life is incredibly important to imagining and creating new ways of being here in the United States.
I'm up for new experiences. Love to see the outdoors in a city (take a hike, a swim, etc). Like to go out and experience the nightlife. Arts, culture, history, plays, dances, museums, community service projects--I love it all.
I'm super easy going. I think I make a great traveling companion. I just go with the flow, don't complain, can handle myself, and look out for others.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is about love. Engaging more deeply in loving those around you. Connecting to the deepest source of love, which is the Creator, and in so doing connecting with those around you.
I'm not very good at this, but I'm trying to get better!
