About Me

CURRENT MISSION

LEARN! languages, cultures and everything in between

ABOUT ME

I love learning new things, especially languages! and the cultures that follow them. I would like to use my love for languages to assist me with my future travels around the world( which I haven't done nearly enough). I enjoy finding out new things, places etc. around the city and places I travel to. I'm very open and pretty well up to doing anything. energetic and usually always on the go.

PHILOSOPHY

To understand and learn so I could possibly guide and teach.

Everyone has something to give.

Love.

I have seen the current of a rapid take an aluminum canoe and wrap it around a boulder. Paragliding in Penticton B.C, being able to see the surroundings at a frightening height.
