Im am currently attending University in persuit of a degree in International Affairs with minors in Sociology and Spanish. Last year I had the privlidge of living in England on a voluenteer program.

I had a very flexible schedual and was able to explore much of Europe, all the while meeting wonderful people. I love being independant and discovering new things to me. Helping people and sunshine make me happy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I visited Morocco in April 2009, I spent a night under the stars in the Sahara, on top of the hightest sand dune that could be seen. The moon was so bright even the beetles crawling on the sand had their own shadow. Iv'e never been so at peace.
