About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hey there created a cs years ago but my travel plans never materialized unitil now Im a super outgoing, sports, music and carne asada aficionado who is typically laid back and always up for an adventure.***** Moving to Costa Rica as of June 21st and have a week of free time before I start teaching, interested in meeting lots of ticos and traveling all over beautiful Costa Rica!*****

PHILOSOPHY

I tend to visit the road less travel and avoid the tourist traps whenever possible. Am always extremely curious of my curious surroundings and bit of a history nerd.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting the Mayan Ruins of Tikal in the remote jungle of Guatemala, was absolutely life changing. To find absolute tranquility with these awe inspiring ruins is an experience that forever changed me.

Teach, Learn, Share

How to look past broad generalizations that our brain categorizes due to cognitive efficiency. I come from a family of story tellers, so I feel with me there is never a dull moment or somewhat clever anecdote haha.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good laugh, countless stories, anecdotes and words. Peanut butter!

Countries I’ve Visited

Belize, Canada, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
