About me
Long version:
I left home at 18 to join the Marine Corps. After leaving my parents I was very afraid of being alone 😆 (nah, not one bit). I didn't have a lot of friends right away (or ever). However, strangely enough, people really do get along with me most of the time. When I was in I was a little bit more hardlined about things and I think it rubbed people the wrong way. After getting promoted to sergeant I had to lead in a way that suited most people not just the ones I liked. Since then, I have expanded this to even more things in my life with the goal of being the kind of person anyone would like to be around. I have moved around a lot (13 times in the last 11 years, with two locations for over 2 years).
Short version:
I'm a Christian first regardless of my political background. I try my best to make things as light hearted as possible (it's not possible, let's talk about aliens and the pyramids 🤣). I love talking and if you do too we could talk over each other for the next 5 hours if you'd like (I'm kidding, I'm not that bad). I'm learning Japanese and I love the culture because I spent 3.5 years over there.

Write about your own experiences guiding as a Local Friend. You can write these on your own voice, relating the unique experiences you were able to give who was traveling with you. Example: "Last week, I guided a traveler from Spain who wanted to experience the city beyond the main attractions. We started with a quiet morning at a small coffee shop only locals know, then wandered through a street art alley where I could share the stories behind each mural. They told me it was their favorite part of the trip because it felt like discovering a secret side of the city, one they would have never found alone."
