CURRENT MISSION

To live life and learn

ABOUT ME

I'm really happy with my life right now and love going on adventures.
I'm prone to spontaneous dance parties and talking to strangers. And I LOVE high energy activities like contra dancing, skiing, rock climbing, backpacking, kayaking, horse back riding.. you name it.

PHILOSOPHY

Smile, breathe and go slowly.

The grass is greener where you water it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Building sandcastles on Koh Phangan while the sunset and the full moon came out, Learning to make adobe houses, climbing the Great Wall, Night Diving with phosphorescent algae, learning to make dumplings at my Chinese roommate's family home, finding off the map places that haven't been ruined by tourism, many moments with amazing people who make me think about the world in a different way
