I'm 24. I love anyone and anything that is outgoing, open-minded, creative, artistic, challenging, intelligent, adventurous, lively, funny, loving... Just recently graduated from my Master's program and have spent the past 6 months teaching English for SENA in Popayan, Colombia. I'm originally from Washington DC, USA. Been to lots of different places and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. I really enjoy getting to know new people, spending time with family and friends, playing soccer, exploring, painting, singing, reading, hiking, swimming, dancing, and learning languages. We all have something we can teach and learn from one another. Looking forward to meeting you!

Música, películas y libros

music: lately I've been listening to a lot of Bonobo, Memory tapes, flight facilities, and Odesza but its a spectrum: anywhere from drum and base, hip hop, soul, funk, trip hop, trance, electro, rap..

books:
One hundred years of solitude
The true history of paradise
Nervous conditions
Red is not the only color
The Alchemist
Like water for Chocolate

movies: too hard to choose! I love all types of movies

Algo increíble que he hecho

Partnered with the Sri Lankan Army to develop and facilitate a reconciliation-through-sports peace building soccer camp for male youth in Kilinochchi, Sri Lanka. Pretty crazy experience...
