About Me

CURRENT MISSION

London to Munich by bike... maybe a ferry or train in between.

ABOUT ME

Im a fun, adventurous 28yo guy who wants to meet nice people and share some good times.

I study biology at University of North Texas and recently graduated with my bachelors. I plan to get a graduate degree focused on bio-materials. Denton is a relatively liberal city in a very conservative state, not that I identify with either side myself, but it is an interesting mix of opinions.

I ride my bicycle alot, and im pretty sure bikes are the best thing since... beer. I like to travel light and take the un-touristy rout. I have been to Maccu Piccu in Peru and a few EU countries (NL,GR). My next adventure will be biking from London to Munich following the Rhine and Danube rivers.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is incomplete and always in flux. However I have figured a few things out: working hard to produce something useful is fulfilling, people make both stupid and smart decisions en masse, and life does not wait for you.

I believe in no organized religion but feel there is a creator.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite writers are mostly Sci-Fi classics like Aurthur C. Clark and Heinlein. I also like adventure: Hunter S. Thompson, Ken Keasy, Etc.

As for music, Im liking the underground hip-hop scene coming from some places in Europe and the Mid-west USA. No screaming and not shit lyrics is what i look for in music... hard to find sometimes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Maccu Piccu and the sacred valley was one of the greatest places i have ever been, that place deserves it's reputation.
