ABOUT ME

Constantly smiling, loving, daydreaming. I tend to see things in a bigger picture and a brighter light. There's nothing I want out of life except for the experience of living... preferably in as many different places and cultures as possible. People are a fascination and a passion of mine.

PHILOSOPHY

we create our own path

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

moving across the Atlantic on my own when I was 19

Teach, Learn, Share

I think that my knowledge comes mostly in the form of sporadic facts. So a little of everything.

I'd love to learn more Spanish as I will be travelling there a lot. After that, I want to conquer the French language so a head start would be nice.
Other than that, any specialty you might have, I am beyond happy to talk/learn about it.
