About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Let's go sky diving. Who's down?

ABOUT ME

I'm from southern California, born and raised, but I've had my share of moving around the west coast.

I traveled all over Europe on my own for almost 5 months, met amazing people from CS and had soo much fun, I can't wait to do it again on my South America trip! (Whenever that may be) :D

At the moment I can't host people but would love to meet up for coffee, drinks or lunch!

This site to me is about meeting awesome people/locals, swapping travel stories, stepping outside of your comfort zone and trying new things, eating a local dish, having fun, Partying! etc...

I get along with most if not everyone, easy going, down for anything fun and daring, always down for a good party. I love the beach & camping. LOVE music

I can cook! But still would love to learn as much as I can about it (especially anything Mediterranean) I can even do the dishes for you :D

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in Karma.
I live my life with a positive attitude and seek others with same mentality.
I believe that you should always live each day as though it were your last.

My resolution for the year "Live Life! Have Fun! No Regrets!"
It's a fresh start to meet new people, go to new places and try new things.
