About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy a summer of fun traveling around the UK and Ireland!

ABOUT ME

I am a (very) recent graduate with a B.A. in environmental studies and a shiny new M.A. in journalism and mass communication. I LOVE to travel, so when my sister asked me to backpack around Europe with her this summer it was an obvious YES. I really enjoy meeting new people and getting to know a new place beyond tourist attractions. Hiking, reading, writing, tennis, beer, popcorn, happy hour, laughing, sunshine and adventure are a few of my favorite things. One day I'd like to write a book! Anyway, I'm a pretty open person who really values honesty, so if you have any questions feel free to ask :)
