Teach, Learn, Share

I received a Bachelor's in Environmental Science at the University of West Florida in 2012. I am traveling and volunteering at lodge's before applying for grad schools, where I will pursue scientific-related disciplines. Most likely Ecology. Education, especially environmental education, is important to me.

I would like to meet anyone interested in academia, who is willing to share their culture and language with me, and is passionate about something.
