CURRENT MISSION

Graduating from college in December! Going back to Ireland in January – hosts please! :)

ABOUT ME

I'm bad at self-descriptions. I'm 21, spastic, kindhearted. I love adventuring, thrifting, drinking coffee, and talking. I'm a firm believer in doing whatever the hell you want before you reach your late 20s and have to be a responsible human. Consequently, I frequently wear polka dot tights, listen to loud music, generally have fun.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that I'll only ever claim to like or do anything if it genuinely inspires me. I can't stand the idea of people doing things to keep up an appearance of some abstract idea of "cool." Cool doesn't exist. The only things that matter are kindness, generosity, and integrity to who you truly believe you are.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I spent an entire night on a rooftop in New York City last summer. It was phenomenal.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

If it's a choice between saying yes and being lazy, say yes, always.
