About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet people from all over!

ABOUT ME

I grew up in California, and am now going to school in Lugano, Switzerland! Here I will be studying international management and marketing. I am down to earth, and enjoy anything outdoors. I love traveling and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to be like this kid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWcyIpul8OE

Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
Henry David Thoreau

"I want to write about people I love, and put them into a fictional world spun out of my own mind, not the world we actually have, because the world we actually have does not meet my standards." Philip K.D.

Dreams are the wings with which we soar

“Laugh when you can, apologize when you should, and let go of what you can’t change. Life’s too short to be anything… but happy.”-Anonymous
