CURRENT MISSION

Go somewhere ya never gone, sing something that ya never sung, think about something that ya never thought, and if you're gonna give, give everything you got.

ABOUT ME

Spent the past few years all over the place (mainly Korea and Uganda). Two years teaching English in South Korea and enjoyed a lot of traveling and exploring more of the world. We've recently relocated back to western North Carolina. I know it may sound cheesy but, regardless: I love people and I love life. I've recently decided that I really want to experience LIFE more... and I think traveling and meeting new people is a very important part of this :)

PHILOSOPHY

I am blessed and I only hope I can use my own blessings to bless others!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hmm... this is a hard one. I've ridden a horse through the countryside of Mongolia and I've swam in beautiful volcanic lakes.

I was basically kidnapped in Beijing on a rickshaw. I'm not sure it was amazing, but it does make for an amazing story.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a strong believer that you can learn something amazing from every individual you meet.
