CURRENT MISSION

Cling tenaciously to child-like wonder. Learn all sorts of new things.

ABOUT ME

'Ello, ello. My name is Katie, and I study anthropology at a small university in Pocatello, ID. Attempting to wrap my head around new folk and cultures is of the utmost importance to me. For the last few months I've been participating on an exchange in northern Sweden.

I'm somewhat of goofball. I've been accused of geekery. I love a good dark porter. I enjoy yoga and being outdoors. I adore animals. Laughing, joking, and quick wit are extremely important! Many people have told me that I'm the most tattooed girl they've ever met. I enjoy live music like nobody's business. I've been accused of being a great cook.
