About Me

Calvin and Hobbes. Be open-minded. Be nice to people. Do something for the benefit of Humanity. Ask why. Empathize
About Finnish boarder Eero Ettala: "Finns like to be around other Finns. Eero is no exception and is rarely seen without sidekick heikki sorsa throughout the winter. They own a truck together, film together, share hotel roms, and most likely spend hours naked in the sauna together- the number one pastime of all Finnish folk, for those of you who haven't shared in the delight." -Transworld Snowboarding

My Interests

Camping at the Beach, Road Trips, Bonfires, Hanging out at Pacific City, Trinity Lake with Family & Jeff, Surfing, Bridge on the Wilson River, Driving Fast (what?), Late Night Saunas and Cold Pools, Wakeboarding, Surfing, Longboarding, Tree-hugging, Liberalism, Peace, Taking Interesting Photos, Napping In The Sun

People that like to enjoy nature. People that are open to everybody's opinion. Everybody else said they would like to meet a celebrity, but I don't think I would like too. Celebrities are just distant objects. What are they to you?
