Overview
About Me
Hello! My name is Amanda but usually I go by Apanda. For two and a half years, I lived in China as an English teacher. For half a year, I lived in Malaysia as a hostel receptionist and diver. Currently I am living at home and working as an Adoption Counselor at St. Hubert's Animal Welfare Center. One of my greatest joys is bringing people of different backgrounds and cultures together. I especially love making new friends as I feel that there is something to learn from everyone!
