CURRENT MISSION To see the entire world, and to meet many people along the way. ABOUT ME I grew up kind of all over the United States; my family moved a lot because my Dad is an officer in the US Coast Guard. Therefore, I bring with me mix of many of the subcultures within the US; I have lived in California, Massachusetts, D.C/Northern Virginia, spent a summer in Wisconsin and my mom is from Alabama, so really I have both coasts, the Midwest and the South. Then I also attended McGill University in Montreal, Canada, for four years, so I bring a bit of French-Canada with me too. Right now I'm living in Munich, Germany, where I'm working as an au pair for a year in order to learn German and travel as much of Europe as I possibly can over the next 11 months. I'm also really interested in meeting new people here in Munich, as my job and limited German-speaking abilities have really prevented me from making many friends. PHILOSOPHY e.e. cummings sums it up best: "for life's not a paragraph And death I think is no parenthesis"
