About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world as possible

ABOUT ME

I studied French and International Studies and did what every other French degree holder does and went to France! I`m in Europe until June 2015 and hope to see and explore as much as possible. I'm extremely active and occupy most of my time running, swimming, weight lifting, climbing (not very well), doing yoga, etc. I enjoy reading and my favorite genres are fantasy (HP, Game of Thrones, Eragon type books) and health/wellness/athletics. 11 is my favorite number and I can touch my nose with my tongue.

PHILOSOPHY

Better to live your dream than dream your life.

Music, Movies, and Books

90% of what I listen to is country music (don't knock it till you try it)
I'm also currently trying to make my way through all of Grey's Anatomy. I managed to make it to season 10 in an embarassingly short amount of time but a lack of wifi here in France is making finishing the series difficult.
My favorite movie is Gladiator.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've worked at a summer camp in the US for the past three summers and would need more than this box to describe how my experiences at the camp and with my kids and coworkers have changed my life. I know it's not exactly climbing Everest or swimming with sharks, but it's definitely amazing and special to me!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to teach and share my knowledge of english and french!
