I'm traveling for a year before starting university. My goal is to learn about the world by being in it, living life instead of simply being told about it from a classroom.

PHILOSPHY

"Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me . . . Anything can happen, child. Anything can be." -Shel Silverstein
