CURRENT MISSION

Explore as many out-of-the-way places as possible.

ABOUT ME

I currently live and work in Norfolk, Va. I first went abroad in 2007, to Germany, and loved seeing and experiencing new palces. I studied in Jordan for a semester, and explored several countries in the region while there. My favorite place I've visited is Istanbul, closely followed by the Rhine River Valley in Germany. I love talking with people when traveling, whether locals or other travelers, and I enjoy trying to see the world within their (often quite different) context.

Интересы

I love reading, first and foremost, especially books about traveling, history, and foreign affairs. I also enjoy cooking and eating, and will try pretty much anything new once. I grew up in the woods, love being outside, and thoroughly enjoy hiking and canoeing (although I don't do either nearly as often as I would like). I also despise mushrooms.
