Countries I've Traveled To
Languages Spoken
English, very little french, enough Farsi to barely get by
Interests
Books you might find in my backpack
Music you might find me listening to while waiting for my plane
Most Memorable Travel Experience
Shoving my friend Kung Pow in a Taxi so he'd stop yelling at girls wearing Burkas in the United Arab Emirates thus avoiding Arab prison.

I also really enjoyed drinking Palinka in the mountains of Transylvania with the locals.

Wandering around by myself in Kyrgyzstan knowing 5 words in Russian and finding no one that spoke English.
Profile
Spent two years in Afghanistan and traveling around, glad to be back home in Oregon but can't wait to travel some more. Finishing my Paramedic and getting back to firefighting as soon as I can.
