Overview
About Me
Traveling often (California, Chicago, NY likely in July/August), Croatia in September. I have been to a lot of the continental US and a few countries outside (Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Mexico, and good ole Canada). I have lived mostly in Ohio (went to school in Toledo and now work in Columbus). I also have lived in Los Angeles for few months in undergrad.
Friendly, open-minded, respectful and fun-seeking would be good descriptors for me.
