About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world whenever I get the chance to!!! I am still in university, and I work part-time as well. I plan to apply to medical school.

ABOUT ME

I am a huge independent and foreign film buff. I am always watching these films on my computer or going out to catch a flick when I have free time.

I am an extrovert, and generally a kind person. I enjoy different cultures, and have traveled all over most of Europe, and a few South American countries (Brazil, Panama).

My other interests are church (protestant), writing, enjoying life, and of course traveling! I am not happy if I am in one place for too long. The world has too many exotic places to see you and too many beautiful cultures to explore...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I have seen in my life, is probably looking down at the city in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil from Christ the Redeemer statue.

The most amazing thing that I have done in my life was packing up to live in Mexico City and work as an English teacher there.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach? Not too useful in that arena. I play the piano but wouldn't be willing to teach someone how to as it that would take a couple of years. ; )

I would love to learn how to surf.
