  • Description

    The times where I feel the most alive and happy are when I'm traveling, exploring new places, meeting new people, and learning anything new. Which I've began to implement into my life and am now pursuing a lifestyle to maximize my exposure to the things that make me come alive. My goal within the near future is to travel sustainably, both financially and environmentally. Simply knowing there's so much of the world that I've yet to see and so many things I've yet to experience serve as my motivation to continue living a nomadic lifestyle and continue being curious about the world.
