About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Build My Life

ABOUT ME

After graduating from college I had some money saved up. I was going to travel the world or buy a motorcycle...I chose to travel

I am 24 years old and looking for the next adventure, (whether it be to a historic monument, interesting country or the next pub crawl). I like sports, sometimes i talk way too fast and about pointless stuff. Some of the things i like to do are SNOWBOARDING, longboarding, READING, writing, rock climbing, rock music, drinking some GOOD BEERS, I also played RUGBY for tres anos while at college.

Ima fun-loving individual easy to get along with. I always try to make sure the people around me are having a good time as well. I enjoy going out on the weekends, but am also an early riser to see the city come to life. I work hard and play hard. I believe that one should be able to enjoy the fruits of their labor.

PHILOSOPHY

Try anything once but Iĺl take two at a time
