ABOUT ME

I will be celebrating my 30th bday in Cambodia from 3-1-14 to 3-11-14 and would love to hang out with CS's.

2012 I just finished my Masters in Social Work and will be traveling for 6 weeks as a gift for 2 years of sleepless nights and non-existent social life =)

PHILOSOPHY

I live in the present NOW & take the past and learn from it. I make conscious choices to better the future for all.
