About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To understand foreign cultures through the eyes of others.

ABOUT ME

I am a white male from suburbia that wants to experience the world beyond I-275. I have traveled to odd locales in the world, Mbakalo Kenya, but I am still looking for a true adventure. I enjoy the outdoors but as of late I have not been able to venture outside my school's walls. I like to have a good time, especially with my girlfriend Sarah, who also shares my passion of travel. Some quick facts about me are: I like to leisurely read (Jurassic Park, LOTR, Catch 22, Hot Zone, Catcher in the Rye, In Cold Blood, and Angels and Demons), I like all forms of Rock and Roll (from Beatles, my favorites, to ZZ top), I am a sports nut (my teams are Reds, Bengals, Bearcats, Buckeyes NCAAFB,Redhawks, Team USA soccer and any European football), I like to work out, I am part of a Fraternity SIGMA PHI EPSILON, I have traveled to about 15% of the world and I want to make it at least 40%, and I Love my family and most of all my girlfriend. I look forward to crashing on couches across this big planet we call EARTH.
