About Me

CURRENT MISSION

i seek higher understanding of the world and myself. my favorite part of traveling is to take it slow and get a peak at other ways of living and experiencing the world.

ABOUT ME

i love to go out, enjoy music, try new things, engage in conversation, feel the sun, see the stars... rebel soul, blind heart. very silly. laughter is my soundtrack... comedy is my saving grace ;)

PHILOSOPHY

A lover, not a hater.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing travel moments I have had have always been unexpected moments of true, wholehearted kindness. I've been to the Christo Redentor in Rio de Janeiro and other world sites, like the Mayan ruins in Mexico, but my most memorable moments have been with people who have taken me in and called me their friend.
