ABOUT ME
Big fan of community. Very open to new experiences and forming new and fun relationships. I love to see live music and go out dancing all night. Social issues are what I'm passionate about. Currently I'm serving as an AmeriCorps VISTA Leader in Albany, NY. I want to make the world a better and more fun place to live in. I'm very generous and try to help other living creatures when I can. Traveling is something I abosolutly love to do. I want to continue to work on my spanish speaking skill so I'm able to travel throughout Latin America and beyond.
PHILOSOPHY
Love you withold is the pain you carry.
Interests
Music, dancing, tribalism vs. civilization, social justice, Food Co-ops and farmers markets are fun places to hang out as well. I'm interested in traveling and love to spend time outside either hiking, swiming, running, jumping, etc etc etc. I think anything can be fun if you're with the right people, fun people who you love.

All kinds of music, have not gotten into country music though.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Recently traveled through Israel and Palestine. It was incredible to meet people in that part of the world and to experience such wonderful hospitality.
I've climbed Wayna Picchu while I was traveling in Peru and did portions of the Inca Trail. It was fun being up in the clouds until these huge mosquito/hornit like creatures started to come out. Luckily some lizards followed suit and ate some. I've also travled to Kingston Jamaica and the Dominican Republic. Both trips were for service and the Kingston Trip was the first time I experienced extreme poverty. That changed my world view forever. The trip to the DR reinforced it...
