CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

My name's Michele and I'm a 23 year old who left the country for the first time in June. I decided over winter break that I needed to get out of Wisconsin for awhile and see some of the world. There are some things you can never learn through sitting in a lecture hall and I was craving a new type of knowlege! I'll be living in Dublin till June of 2012 and traveling Europe and the rest of Ireland on my time off. I'm a very open-minded person and I love to learn about people's opinions and philosophies. I'm super laid-back and 90% of the time I am not serious. I'm kind of a goofball and not afraid to laugh at myself. I get along with almost everyone I meet. I love animals-especially cats! Leaving mine behind was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. I also love the outdoors. Spending time in nature is amazing. Meeting new people is something I thoroughly enjoy so feel free to say hi :-) I really like working with kids and when I go home I will finish my degree in elementary education.

PHILOSOPHY

Ask me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I left my home to live abroad for a year. It was my first time leaving the country and I was the first one out of all my friends or family to do so, so it was a big deal for me!
