I travel because we live on a beautiful world filled with beautiful people and I want to live it and enjoy it. You never know when your last day will be. I use CS because to me the most important part of travel are the people you meet along the way.

I like reading, hiking, camping, writing, projects, and listening and performing music. I play guitar and harmonica mostly but also some fiddle and banjo. I grew up in a small village with only 600 people. It was all forest and I live for nature. I fix things when they break and hate buying new things. I don't expect a lot and I don't need a lot to get by.
