About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See as much of the world as possible while having the best experiences of my life.

ABOUT ME

Basically, I want to meet new people and hear stories and laugh and drink and be merry!

I love life, especially when I am learning new things. I like to explore and find hidden treasures, actual treasure would be nice, but I'll settle for a hidden beach or a hole in the wall restaurant. I love to dance, even if it's by myself in my underwear in front of the mirror! I can be extremely sarcastic and witty, and I would rather be laughing than doing anything else at any given time. I want to see the whole world and meet everybody and hear as many stories as humanly possible. Sometimes I ask too many questions, just tell me to stop. I love airports, because they are literally the gateway to the rest of the world, and I get giddy when I think about where I'll be when I step off of the airplane. I also like to compare the bathrooms at airports, Chicago O'Hare has automatic seat covers, it's pretty impressive. I wish I could speak every language, but so far I've barely mastered my native tongue and I'm working on Spanish. I can also say one offensive phrase in Mandarin, but I'm fairly certain I pronounce it incorrectly.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to experience and understand everything around me. I want to have as broad of an experience as I can. I shy away from close-mindedness and embrace the opportunity to see things from a different perspective.
