About Me

CURRENT MISSION

the passionate pursuit of purpose.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel! I'm from Seattle. I love the Amsterdam airport. I love coffee shops. Laughter is medicine - it may not cure you but it will make your soul a little lighter. I'm open and honest. I can't live without the beach. Horseback riding is the ultimate form of freedom. I want to see everything, everywhere. I think traveling is a way of life. I want to make the world a better place. So far I have lived in Africa, America, and Europe... next I want to visit Thailand, Australia, and South America. I love people... (that means you)

PHILOSOPHY

“To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other and to feel. That this is the purpose of ‘Life’”
