CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world, breathe some fresh air in new places I've never been, and hopefully take a piece of this freedom home with me once I have to rejoin the workforce.

ABOUT ME

I've been described as adventurous, daring, thoughtful, and easily amused. I love being curious, learning from others, meeting travelers, and leaving no stone unturned when I travel. My favorite things about traveling is meeting people, absorbing the culture, gorging on local fare, and just soaking in the ambiance of a place. I think seeing the world enhances your soul, and my soul is still on the constant searching for that je ne sais quoi contentment.

PHILOSOPHY

Always explore, keep an open mind, turn over that rock, and smile at others. You never know what you're going to find this way.
