About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Explore North America with my buddy and meet lots of wild, interesting people along the way
ABOUT ME
I'm an easy going Physics student from the UK currently on a many month tour of the USA with only my backpack, tent and friend, looking to have a good time and meet lots of interesting like minded people! I enjoy live music, outdoorsy stuff, loads of different activities/sports, and just generally going places and doing things I've never done before.
PHILOSOPHY
There is so much on this world to see and learn and I'm trying to cram it all in to my short insignificant life and overwhelmed brain.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share
As far as esoteric goes I have a knowledge of physics that just about scrapes graduate level and I love talking about it at any level.
