About Me

CURRENT MISSION

pedaling through europe...i wanted to make the most of a wedding invitation

ABOUT ME

i inherited the travel bug from my parents and have been fortunate to have gone on quite few adventures already. having a life long love of cycling, i figured i might as well mix these two together and have been happily self-propelling myself to new places and meeting new faces ever since...its great feeling arriving under your own power.

i love exploring new environments both urban and natural and sharing these experiences with friends old and new is what its all about!

PHILOSOPHY

enjoy every moment. even the hills!
