Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Guide sea kayaking trips based out of Loreto, Baja.
ABOUT ME
I'm was teaching 6th graders things about science in Guadalajara. I'm also working on planning a documentary film project about one of the major river systems in Mexico, the Río Grande de Santiago (check out santiagoriver.com for more info on that).
I love exploring the outdoors in the forms of whitewater kayaking and rafting, mountain climbing, biking, skiing and more. For the past three summers I have worked as a raft guide in the great states of Idaho and Montana.
I'm easy to get along with and more than happy to sleep on a couch.
PHILOSOPHY
People who are vindictively correct in their life decisions, probably have it wrong.

Teach, Learn, Share
I'm happy to help people with their Spanish and give them information about Guadalajara, Baja and Mexico (I have travelled extensively in Mexico to 27 of 32 states and lived in Mexico for over 4 years).
I'm also happy to talk about bike-touring, kayaking, mountain-climbing and would love someone to teach me more guitar.
