CURRENT MISSION

I want to see the world. Meet new people, learn different languages, expierence different cultures. There is only so much time on this Earth, why stay in one country or city for the majority of your life? Carpe diem!

ABOUT ME

Easy going, down-to-earth, ready to explore the world around me.

Also important: I'll be traveling with my boyfriend, who is French, so he wants to explore the world with me!

PHILOSOPHY

What a question. Aren't we all figuring out why we live our lives? Here's a good quote to think about:

"For it is often the way we look at other people that imprisons them within their own narrowest allegiances. And it is also the way we look at them that may set them free." Amin Maalouf

And one more:

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.--Ralph Waldo Emerson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one?

Biked through the Brandenburger Gate in Berlin at night as it was lit up, standing there, amazing and breath-taking. What a strongly-embedded symbol.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn French. I want to see the world. Life is too short to read about cultures, countries, and people. Get out. Explore. Live life with an open-heart and patience. Treat your body well, it's the only one you are going to get. Don't be afraid to try new things, as long as it doesn't jeopardize your morals or integrity.

Carpe diem. Suck the marrow out of life.
