I'm Alyssa...a big sister of 4. I am always traveling around to various different seasonal jobs country and world wide & very much enjoy this lifestyle. I study sustainability and justice studies at Arizona State University online and care very much about the environment and products we purchase and use! I spend my a lot of time practicing yoga & facilitating meditations to children. I taught ESL abroad for a bit as well & have worked in elementary schools here in the US. When I'm not busy, I am sleeping, reading, writing, hiking, or watching documentaries!
