CURRENT MISSION

To fully appreciate the wonders of South America

ABOUT ME

I've living in Santiago now with my boyfriend for 5 months for a program and we are looking forward to traveling once the program is over. I work remotely for a company in San Francisco as a graphic designer, and have been working with them for over 4 years. Before Santiago I was in San Francisco for 7 years and loved it so much. I miss all my friends. I've done quite a bit of traveling already, but not nearly enough, and am so excited to be in South America. I am originally from Los Angeles,California and while it is not really my favorite city, I love going back to visit my family.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to do my best in work, in relationships, and in life experience, but I am also not ambitious. I search for good experiences but try not to stress about getting to them.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Hmmm. This is so relative. I have done ziplining, river rafting, paragliding, climbed waterfalls and volcanos, and moved to two different countries. One of the recent amazing things I have seen is the Tatio Geysers in the Atacama Desert. I would say it is one of the few things worth waking up at 3:45 in the morning. Also very exciting for me was when my sister and brother called me last month on video chat to show me a Mountain Lion in the tree in our driveway.
