ABOUT ME

Hello all :) I'm 21 and finishing my last semester of college. I studied abroad and traveled a ton last spring and I'm excited to move to Europe in June. I'm a psychology major with an Italian and women & gender studies minor. I LOVE learning about different cultures, meeting new people, seeing new things and expanding my knowledge! Running, music, photography, and writing are all very important to me. I'm outgoing, always optimistic and ALWAYS ready for a good time! Adventures, going out, traveling, socializing are all things I live for.

PHILOSOPHY

And if travel is like love, it is, in the end, mostly because it's a heightened state of awareness, in which we are mindful, receptive, undimmed by familiarity and ready to be transformed.
-- Pico Iyer

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
-- Mark Twain
