ABOUT ME

Howdy!! I'm Hannah, and I'm a 21 year-old American girl from Portland, Maine. I attend college at St Michael's College in Burlington, Vermont, and I'm studying psychology. For the past academic year, however, I've been studying at Oxford University in the UK and been traveling around as much as I possibly can. I've definitely had the best year of my life so far! I love hiking, running, jumping, skipping, meeting new people, and living my life the best way I know how.

PHILOSOPHY

"It takes time to live. Like any work of art, life needs to be thought about." -Camus

"The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion." -Camus
