Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To find the end of the world, and then look for the beginning
ABOUT ME
A 30something who has been bouncing between living in ski towns all over the world, and backpacking when there is no snow.
Snowboarding, travelling, new experinces, meeting new people, and having surprises of all kinds are what life is all about for me right now.
I thought I would be doing this for a year or two, and twelve years later I am still at it and can't imagine stopping.
PHILOSOPHY
You only live once, you only get one chance, so take the leap

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The Annapurna circut in Nepal. Out of 12 years of wandering all over the world, that was one of the pinnacles. I also could never forget hitchhiking across Iceland and camping wherever I could while doing that.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am a snowboard instructor and also speak 3 languages, and am always very happy to be able to pass on some of that knowledge
What I Can Share with Hosts
I have some pretty entertaining travel travel stories after 5 continents and 50something countries. I also enjoy cooking with hosts, talking politics and history and just about anything else
