CURRENT MISSION

I want to see the world and make as many good friends as i can.

ABOUT ME

Bummed about the low response record, i took a break from CS and forgot to set my couch to off.... OOPS.

I was born in Farmington, New Mexico, but most of my life I lived in Springfield, Missouri. It is there that I think of when I say "home". I want to live differently that what some call normal. I would love for everything I own to fit in my car and be able to pick and move with a day's notice. I LOVE to cook and learn new things about cooking. Let's cook together and learn from each other, share taveling stories over a cocktail or glass of wine.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to be the guy who friends come to when they have something to celebrate or need comfort. I also think people reap what they sow. I want to be a positive influence in the world around me.
