CURRENT MISSION

to smile, laugh, and dance

ABOUT ME

I'm a fun lovin', laid back California girl and a hippy at heart. I have an intense passion for traveling and a whole lotta love for the amazing people in my life. After living like a responsible adult for a couple years after college, I realized it just wasn't for me. I quit my desk job in May 2012 and have been running from the 'real world' ever since.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life may not be the party we all expected, but since we're here we might as well dance."

"This is not a dress rehearsal."

"If you want something you've never had, then you have to do something you've never done."

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I'm lucky that I have had the chance to do a lot of things that I consider amazing in my lifetime. Ask me over a glass of wine, or a shot of tequila :)

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I'm realizing while I'm trying to write this that I don't have very many "real world" skills. I'm very book smart, but when it comes to everything else I'm very much a blonde. I have the worst sense of direction, I seriously get lost on a daily basis. I don't know any other languages. I'm an awful cook. I can't play a musical instrument. If you want some volleyball or accounting/finance lessons I'm your gal. Other than that I have a lot to learn if you're willing to teach!
