About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to wander, get lost, and find myself again.
ABOUT ME
I've always had the travel bug, it was implanted in me at a very young age, and I'm sure all of you on here know and understand that it is nearly impossible to get rid of, so, I am just embracing it, and feeding it by travelling and meeting travellers as much as possible.
I'm a firm believer in living peacefully and lovingly. I have an open mind and open heart. I believe that life is all about community and learning and growing together.
"I had been raised to believe there were monsters under the bed, but I had peeked, in a moment of bravery, and found a wonderful world, a good world, better, in fact, than the one I had known."
-Don Miller (Blue Like Jazz)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing I've ever done was going on a safari in Zambia, Africa. Living in the wild for a couple nights was breathtaking. A close second would have to be partying all night in Pamplona, Spain for Running of the Bulls!
