About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm on a mission to see everything i can on the east coast before my money runs out!

ABOUT ME

This is difficult....I'm fun, fair, honest and driven. I love to read, watch movies, go camping. I'm talkative and like to tell stories. I'm willing to try anything new and my motto is "you only live once!". Recently applied to grad school, but didn't get in so I'm free as a bird with no direction. I'm a wandering drifter trying to find my place in the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Why waste time worrying, just do what makes you happy! (I'm still working on putting this into practice)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently saw the synchronized firefly phenomenon in the Smoky Mountains! Very very cool! And i guess getting my B.A. after years of transferring all over was pretty cool too. I'm currently on my first solo trip to the East coast. Coasting til my money runs dry!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a useless store of movie/director/actor knowledge. Full of useless trivia. Can share my physical anthropology education with anyone willing to listen. Need help reassembling that pesky skeleton? I'm your girl. I can also show you how to refinish furniture or sew simple sewing projects. Would love to learn anything musical and I haven't used my French much since I barely passed the classes! I want to learn to sail.
