CURRENT MISSION Funding my travels, working abroad, and writing stories. I plan on going back to school in a few years for a master's degree in creative writing. ABOUT ME I'm from the United States. I just recently caught the travel bug after spending two months in Southeast Asia. Now I'm volunteering in Chile and hope to teach English. After a few years I plan on heading to Europe to live in Spain. I've studied Creative Writing and Chemistry at University and think that knowledge is beautiful and contagious. I love learning from all experiences and people I run into. I'm very easy going and it takes a lot to throw me out of my good mood.
