CURRENT MISSION

to see the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Lille, France, teaching English to primary school kids. I am interested in international relations and development, and I love learning about other cultures. I am applying for the Peace Corps and hopefully will be leaving for Africa this autumn!

PHILOSOPHY

"Always get on the plane." This catchphrase has led to some fantastic adventures and hasn't steered me wrong yet. It also works for trains, buses, and cars, but hasn't been verified for segways ;-)
