About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. ~St. Augustine

ABOUT ME

I am very happy, easy-going and enthusiastic. I love to meet new people and learn new things with and from them! My biggest passions are travel, art, music, and Jesus Christ! I love going to concerts, listening to music, and playing guitar and singing. I love people, especially people from different cultures. You will probably experience some of this love if you meet me. I am pretty chill, but always up for an adventure!

PHILOSOPHY

To live each day to the fullest. To make the world a brighter and happier place for the people around me. And to really experience life.

I was couch surfing for a year around Europe. I think its one of the best things that ever happened to me! :) I have met the coolest people and had the opportunity to really SEE the cities I have been to and experienced the culture of that city. I am a couchsurfer for life now!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen The Northern Lights in the north of Norway.. absolutely phenomenal experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

Treat everyone how you would like to be treated.

The 90/10 rule.. every day is 90% good, and maybe 10% bad. Sometimes you can focus on that 10% and let it ruin your day, when really you should look at all the good, which is so much more!

And my best travel advice: to always bring flip-flops. When your feet are covered in blisters from your shoes, you can switch to them AND you never know what kind of place you will stay so they can double as slippers/ shower shoes! :)

Love is all you need.
