hey, ive been around posting on the board for about year or so on and off but i never really posted a introduction. i'm parker and im from pittsburgh. i studied international business and spanish and i just graduated. i studied abroad in costa rica and spain for a year each. i've also backpacked most of western europe, latin america, mexico, and some good chunks of eastern europe although there are still some spots i want to hit. i've also traveled most of the u.s. and canadaminus alaska which i cant wait to get to
i'm heading out again in a month to head back to europe and do some more backpacking. i already have plans for my next trip which im planning to go to china and japan.
this board has really been helpful thus far and ive liked getting to know some people and getting some helpful tips on traveling.
if anyone ever wants to talk i'm up for it. just send me a message on AIM. my screen name is RootBrewskies and i'm always up for sharing stories, giving advice, or just having a chat.

yea, i'm just about the biggest seinfeld fan in the world. its actually quite pathetic. i took a trip to nyc a few months back and spent about 2 days just hitting up seinfeld spots.
anyway, good to talk to everyone, and im looking forward to getting to know more and more people.
