i'm 27 years old, finishing up my bachelors in social science. i love learning about all the various ways humans live and experience their world. my formost interest lies in the development of, and tranformation towards sustainable and community-based agricultural systems. i'm also generally interested in progress towards any other kind sustainable lifeways. i have been travelling off and on during the past few years; around india, western europe, and western china. now, as i graduate and seek the next step of in my life, i desire the altogether different experience of living for a least a year in a foreign land and immersing myself in a new culture, in a situation where i can both gain new skills and contribute my energy to benifit the people and ecology of that place. i have my eyes set on latin america, and more specifically cuba.
