CURRENT MISSION

To experience life from as many perspectives as possible

ABOUT ME

I love to travel! I've been all over the US and have made a dent in Europe. I taught English for two years in Poland and one year in Korea. I just finished teaching 3rd grade at an international school in Japan. I love teaching children and reading Young Adult Fantasy literature. The mountains are my fave, but I enjoy any kind of nature. I've never grown-up, so I love games and am easily excitable!

PHILOSOPHY

"The purpose of life is not to arrive at death safe, in a well-perserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thouroughly used up and screaming 'whoa, what a ride'"
