CURRENT MISSION

To say yes to trying something new, explore, and meet people.

ABOUT ME

I am in my last year of college in TX. I am majoring in English with a minor in Art History. I studied abroad in New Zealand in 2009 and have visited 2 times since. I now have caught the travel bug and want to travel the world!

PHILOSOPHY

"To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived—this is to have succeeded."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
