CURRENT MISSION

To learn to poop on a squat toilet.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Key West, Florida and then went to college in Orlando(the home of mickey mouse and every other tacky thing in my country.) I graduated in four years and am now trying my hand as a world traveler. I had the opportunity to move to london and work in a university while soaking up the best London has to offer and traveling the UK. Afterwards, I set out for a 3 month backpacking trip around Europe. Came back home, living with mom, waiting tables and rolled my eyes a lot and left again for 13 months around the world. I have been living in St. augustine, but have just moved to Brooklyn, New York to pursue dancing, poetry, all grain brewing and being broke in the big city.

Interessen

i am a vegetarian. i could watch people come and go from airports for hours. i like the sun shining on my legs while i sit at the beach in the middle of summer as much as i like the cold stinging my nose in a big city in the winter. i am obsessed with portland, oregon, new york city, Berlin, London, Cinque Terre and all of Spain and Greece. My love for Asia is vast and deep after spending 8 months here so far. I like the outdoors and bike-riding and food markets. i believe in equal rights for everyone and i love a good protest, demonstration or march. i think that peace is not idealistic. i am obsessed with good films and love trying new foods and especially new beer. i am open-minded, like to laugh and am interested in fashion. can i come visit you yet?

Musik, Filme und Bücher

music-mostly indie, folk, hip-hop(for dancing) and bad 90's covers.

movies-i guess i am a sucker for artsy movies and documentaries and if a comedy actually has humor that makes me laugh than that is acceptable too.

books- anything sedaris (dress your family in cordoroy and denim is my favorite), the frog king, me talk pretty one day, possible side effects, jesus land, name all the animals, the awakening, the poisonwood bible, extremely loud and incredibly close.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Hogmanay in Edinburgh, Flamenco Dancing in Spain, Tzatziki in Greece, Cinque Terre, everything about Berlin, the call to Allah over the caves in Cappadocia, Turkey, the kindness of the Philippines, snorkeling with whale sharks and funnels of barracuda in Donsol and Sipadan and the crazy night markets of Asia.
