FAQ:

​

HOW'D YOU GET STARTED TRAVELING? 

​

Four years ago I took my first international trip to Mexico City for Memorial Day Weekend, and I was hooked. Immediately after I took a six-week EuroTrip in between jobs.

​

Since then I’ve visited Guatemala, Ecuador, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and countless U.S. destinations while working as a sales consultant at a tech company.

​

During this time I’ve lived in San Francisco and New York.

​

WHAT'S YOUR TRAVEL STYLE?

 

I prefer to stay at low-budget hostels and home-stays through sites like AirBnb. My fiancée and I love to camp, hike and climb, so many of our trips involve some level of adventure. I'm a nerd and anthropology buff, so I really like to get a flavor for the local culture/check out all the historical spots. But I do like to let loose & go out too!

​

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE NOT TRAVELING? ​

​

You can find me reading, writing, hiking, camping, exploring SF (where I currently live!), and hitting up thrift stores.
