I enjoy the outdoors, visiting new places, and learning about living things. I have traveled and studied in many places in the US, mostly in the Midwest and East Coast, and have also taken classes abroad in the Bahamas. I enjoy many different pastimes, including hiking, fishing, rock climbing, kayaking, canoeing, gardening, or just relaxing and watching tv or playing video games.
I have basic skills in computing and web design, and have also used maps, GPS, and other navigational tools.
My current hometown is Marshalltown, IA.
