About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning French & Arabic!

ABOUT ME

I'm a wicked out-going, laid back, happy-go-lucky gal that loves to travel. I'm a translator for the entertainment industry, so I can pick up and go overseas on any given day. I plan on seeing every country, dependency and territory in the world before I die - mmm... about 200+. Well, at least the ones that Americans are allowed in! ã

PHILOSOPHY

Compassion (except bugs).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Galloping into the Sahara on an Arabian horse and seeing the Giza Pyramids in the distance on a bright moonlit night.
