What else ...
Obscure life achievements so far: slept in a log for two nights, memorized the national flag of every country in the world, climbed a mountain (well, hiked it but it counts!), met the director of a favourite film, watched every Studio Ghibli film and animated Disney film ever made.
Interesting tidbits: I want to be a historian specializing in WWI & WWII and could talk about both for hours, I will almost certainly accidentally give you a paper crane-making addiction if we spend enough time together, I want to live in Japan someday but currently live in Spain, originally from Oregon, U.S.A. so outdoorsy through and through.
Looking for in hosts and travel buddies: friendly, open-minded folks with a positive attitude and a zest for life! As my personal hero Russel from the Pixar film ‘Up’ says, “Adventure is out there!” :DSome more information
