CURRENT MISSION

To finally explore the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm a 37-year old female from a small town in Pennsylvania. My head is quite often in the clouds and my nose is usually stuck in a book. My love of travel is insatiable...

PHILOSOPHY

"Live the full life of the mind, exhilarated by new ideas, intoxicated by the romance of the unusual."-Ernest Hemingway

Music, Movies, and Books

I was a journalism major in college with a minor in english, so my list of favorite books is quite extensive. A few of them are Wuthering Heights, anything by Edgar Allan Poe, Anna Karenina, 1984 and Brave New World. My favorite band is U2 and a few of my favorite movies are Gone with the Wind, Dirty Dancing and several more that I'll list later.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I interviewed Pete Best, a former member of the Beatles who was later replaced by Ringo Starr.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to meet people who have a lot of knowledge about traveling and doing it in an affordable way. I'm also looking to improve my Spanish skills so being able to practice with someone with be a huge plus!
