About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and see and experince everything I possibly can while I'm here!

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Becca and I'm 24 from Chicago, IL, but now living in Seattle,WA. A little bit about me, I can be very random at times, sarcastic, a goof, a tad awkward (but really, who isn't at some point? ha!), a loyal friend, blunt with a loud, yet laid-back personality, passionate, driven, and a total wanderlust.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life by being open to others by respecting and learning from others beliefs/ideas. I feel we all can learn something from the various people who pass through our lives and can apply what we learn from them or mold it into our own personal beliefs and morals. Additionally, I'm not a religious person, but I accept anyone and everyone who proves themselves to be a kind, awesome, open human being and lives there lives that way. So be who are, but don't be a jerk. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like alot of movies but some of my favorites include Almost Famous, Bridesmaids, Inception, Empire Records, Star Wars and The Hunger Games.

For music I pretty much like all the genres. If it sounds good, I'll usually listen to it. However, lately I've been on a folk, acoustic, bluegrass kick so some of my current favorites include: The Avett Brothers, CCR, The Head and the Heart, Mumford and Sons, Old Crow Medicine Show, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, The Lumineers, Trampled By Turtles, The Black Keys, Brand New, and The Beatles.

Some of my favorite books include: The Hunger Games series, the Harry Potter Series, Perks of Being a Wallflower, 1984, Catcher in the Rye, Lords of Lawndale, Half Broke Horses, and many others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done so much! But some highlights would be: Watching a REAL rugby match in London, eating fresh off the boat fish and chips on the Isle of Wight, drinking delicious wine while exploring my way through Paris, hiking through the beautiful Chugach Mountains in Alaska, running around Central Park in NYC, working on a goat farm in North Carolina, playing catch on The Field of Dreams in Iowa, watching a Cubs game from the rooftops in Chicago, drinking fantastic beer on a hammock in Portland, OR, and currently stuffing my face with sushi in between rock climbing and hiking the PNW peaks while living in Seattle!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not the best teacher but I love to share what I can with people and in return learn something new.
