CURRENT MISSION

Conquer the world.

ABOUT ME

My name is Melissa Guidry, and I am in love with traveling. I am now always seeking new journeys and adventuring out of my comfort zones. I like to try most anything even if just once.

I absolutely love outdoor activities---anytime I can be outside the better. However, I am a huge museum and history buff. I thoroughly enjoy eating and love trying new and unusual cuisines. When I travel, I like to take on the "do as the locals" mentality and find hole-in-the-wall, but I still find great pleasure partaking in the "touristy" things as well. I enjoy planning, but a good spontaneous day is always in order.

I love to laugh and to make others laugh. I thrive at nighttime. Music makes my soul happy. There is much, much more about me so just ask.

PHILOSOPHY

Why not?
Unexpected opportunities turn out to be the best experiences.
Never pass something up that you know in your gut you want.
Go for it.
Laugh everyday.
Enjoy being yourself.
