About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am studying in Granada, Spain for 1 year and discovering as much of Europe as possible before I return home to California in July.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy everything about traveling: Tourist attractions, local hidden gems, food and most of all the people! Okay I'm not so crazy about the long bus rides at times but who is?

I am a student at Cal State Monterey Bay in beautiful Monterey, California and temperately a student at the University of Granada-Centro de Lenguas Modernas.

Things I love to do:
Traveling (Por Supuesto)
Swimming,
Scuba diving,
Watching movies,
Cooking,
Trying new food,
Finding myself in places I never thought I'd be,
Pushing myself to new heights,
and most of all meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the moment, plan for the future. And see as much of the world as you can.
