About me:

If i could explain it that easily then there probably wouldn't be much to say...
But, I'll try. I took a gap yr. in 2007-08 and taught English in Costa Rica and then after I was a eco-lodge host/guide/interpreter at Rara Avis, Costa Rica (CHECK THAT PLACE OUT!!!).
I've been fortunate enough to get chances to travel and almost feel more comfortable with people I just met and getting to know.
And I'm planing a surf trip to Spain for January of 2010 if anyone has any tips let me know.

I'm fired up on:

surfing, rock climbing, winning "beard-offs", sitting on a dock, hammocks, crab fests!,

the local radio station unless I'm a actual local....then I would say, ALO, Digable Planets, Lotus, Phish, moe., Sea Wolf, Disco Biscuits, The Bridge,

a sexy local or someone as friendly and helpful as I can be.

I want to make a difference by:

serving friends and community with reason and logic, therefor leading us into great fun

Languages spoken, other than English:

Spanish

I felt the most immersed in a foreign culture when:

I'm by myself, and have no other choice but really get integrated.

Why I travel:

Because all I really have is time and love, and I spend them both on our big blue playground.

Ideal place to watch the sunrise:

Meeting it in the Outer Banks of North Carolina after driving all night to go surf.

Ideal place to watch the sunset:

Platanio, Costa Rica after a big rain watching west as the sun paints the clouds

Before I die I'd like to:

learn another language, surf a tow-in wave, climb a mountain, visit all the continents, start a family,

Let's collaborate:

I'm a surfer, but foremost an anthropologist and would like to see/create more surf guides in countries with cultural insights for fellow surfers interested in the culture of the country surfed.
