About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make money so I can continue to travel!

ABOUT ME

Adventurous, funny and open minded. I love to travel and would like to visit lots of new places. I would love to meet people and hear about their travel stories as well.

I'm generally a very optimistic person. Someone has commented that the day that I am not content is the day that something is truly wrong with the world. A slight exaggeration, but the comment sure made my day.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is not to take yourself too seriously and to enjoy life and relish each moment. Appreciate everything for what it is and not what you wish it to be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling in California solo, and piloting a Ford Mustang with the top down on Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles at night with my playlist on the stereo.

It's by no means a greatest achievement or anything, just my fulfillment of a childhood dream. I'm proud of that.
