Since I was a teenager, the world really fascinated me. So in June 2018 I quit my job and went traveling for 6 months, which now has turned into 5 years. My travels have lead me through many different countries, but I've lived in New Zealand, Kyrgyzstan, Turkey, the US (obviously), and then I've spent some shorter amounts of time "living" for a few months in Bulgaria, Palestine, Georgia, and Hungary. I love to meet new people with different perspectives and thoughts about the world and love a good story.
