One Amazing Thing I've Done
I spent a month teaching English and helping kids with mental disorders in Morocco. I was a horseback riding guide through the Rocky Mountains. I would spend my day bringing groups of people on horseback up beautiful glaciers. I spent a winter season working at the Lake Louise ski hill. I worked at a cafe on the back side of the mountain so I had to snowboard to work and back every day. Amazing first tracks after a snow fall! Im very knowledgeable about the Rocky Mountains. Let me know if your in the area or have any questions! :)
My Interests
Anything creative grabs my attention. I love to listen to music, take photographs, read, knit, dance and play sports. I like to try new things and emerge my self in new cultures. However I'm also very happy to spend my day in a cafe reading historical and philosophical books.
