ABOUT ME
I am currently traveling around Europe by myself for the next 4-6 months. This is my first time abroad and I am absolutely loving it. I've been living in Portugal since January '18, volunteering as an English teacher in a primary school in Lisbon. I was born and raised in Rochester, NY and also lived in Colorado for four years before traveling to Europe. I studied communications and media production in while in university. I enjoy meeting all different types of people. I am open to talking with individuals who identify with all different backgrounds. I love to explore the outdoors, and seek out adventures that will lead me to new and beautiful places.

Polite, Calm, Laid back, Earthy, Respectful

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went paragliding off a mountain in Arrábida Natural Park in Setúbul, Portugal. It was truly AMAZING! It was a spontaneous decision on a beautiful day in March. I ran off a cliff of the mountains and sailed over the breath taking surroundings of the hills and the turqouise waters of the Atlantic Ocean. I landed on the beach and was speechless. I hope to do this again more often!
