CURRENT MISSION We are travelling around South America, New Zealand, and SE Asia this year to volunteer in local communities, take our time and be outdoors a lot, and meet new people. ABOUT ME More photos: http://picasaweb.google.com/arcappa We come as a pair though, both very much individuals, we are along the lines of the 'adventurous outdoor- type'. But Tony was a chess nerd in high school. We are from Colorado in the United States and our goal is to see the world through the eyes of our global neighbors and to learn something new everyday. We speak English and Spanish. We were married two years ago on a 13,000 foot-tall mountain and are both in our mid-twenties. Anna is a nurse in a busy city hospital in Denver, and Tony is soon to enter graduate school. We are taking a gap year to travel and volunteer before we settle down to start our own family and farm. We both love to rock climb, raft, hike, exercise and love to camp and are always up for an adventure of any kind in the outdoors. We appreciate and take time for the little things in life, a cool flower you're about to step on while hiking, a breath-taking sunset in a place unexpected, or just relaxing and talking with the town's crazy person at the local coffee shop. We love animals, are not vegetarians but can be if needed. PHILOSOPHY Breathe. Relax. Smile.
