  • Description

    Life for me isn't serious but sincere. Kurt Vonnegut says we’re here to fart around, so I’m giving it my best go by staying authentic - and travelling is a wild way to keep ones authenticity in check.

    I enjoy throwing myself into situations that are uncertain whether it's a country where no one knows your name, or trekking for days on and off the trail just for the thrill of exploration.

    I love being around people (and animals!) as much as i enjoy my solitude out in nature. Wherever I end up I am usually working on my poetry and journaling.

    I am currently in Glacier View, Alaska until the end of May 2026.
    After? No plans.

  • More details about your skills

    I have history of changing bedsheets, cleaning toilets, tending bar, laboring in fields, washing massive amounts of dishes - I think it's summed up by saying I've been in and out of hospitality both in the front and back of the scene.

    I’m a writer at heart - journaling and creating poetry collections is my thing and I'd love to share what little knowledge I've discovered.

    I’ll change your tire, cook you some curry, sing for you (though I’m no singer), and even tell you you have something in your teeth.

    I’m a people’s person and I get great satisfaction when people laugh.

    Above all, being outside is what I’m best at. In Himachal Pradesh, I worked two months as a guide for both small and large parties wanting to go on outings in the foothills of the Himalayas. It was and experience of a lifetime.
