ABOUT ME
I'm a quiet individual who seems smart and always has tons of information stored away in my brain. I'm a walking encyclopedia able to say small quips of facts about any random event.
Interests
Most of the time I'm doing the normal reading books, watching movies, hanging out with friends routine, but I live to experience new cultural things so I'm always searching for concerts or plays, or just about any new experience that I can come up with.
Some day I want to visit all 7 new wonders of the world.
Another one of my bucket list goals is to hike the entire Appalachian trail. I love being out in nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
While I had heard that the Taj Mahal was the most beautiful structure in the world, I was prepared for disappointment. I was not expecting anything, I mean come on it's just a mausoleum. But then I rounded the corner and it came into view. I was truly awestruck at how magnificent it actually was.
Because of my love for nature, I'm usually out hiking when the weather is nice. The Grand Canyon was probably one of the best hiking experiences in my life. Being able to see the wide vistas and the desert like atmosphere was so different than any other place I've lived. Plus getting to camp out under the stars is an added bonus when city lights seem to swallow up any starlight the night sky has to offer.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have a pretty good knowledge about Biblical History and anything to do with technology.
I'm in Taiwan because I'm an English teacher so I think I know a little bit about the English langauge.
I've refinished plenty of antique furniture, just give me the tools and I'm good to go.
