After reading and endless amount of posts and making several posts my self I figure that it may be time for me to introduce myself… My name is Adam, I am a 23 year old male, and I live in the US, in Indiana more specifically… Yes it’s a state filled with Corn and Soybeans, hence my handle “agriadam”. The interesting thing is that I’ve never farmed a day in my life. The business that I am in sells to farmers.
This August I will be leaving for Europe for approximately 6 weeks, I can’t wait I’ve never been backpacking so this is going to be a great experience… I hope.
I’ll try and post some pictures later but I have to find some that will portray my true beauty…
I’m a very open person not easily offended and always up for a good debate. Check my profile for a “short” list of my interests.
I guess that that is all that I can think of right know feel free to ask me any questions you like. I’m sure you’ll see me posting if you haven’t already
