ABOUT ME

I'm studying migration studies, so I love meeting new people and learning their stories. Everyone has a story to tell, and it's important to listen to them to understand how our own story fits in. I've lived a bit in France, and recently moved from Chicago to Brussels.
Otherwise, I was selling cheesemaking equipment before my adventure in Europe, so I love anything cheese and any reason to eat or cook!

PHILOSOPHY

"To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch... to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!" -Emerson

Interessi

all things music: I love going to concerts, and try to discover new music all the time. I play the violin with orchestras wherever I live.

all things art: I make it a point to visit art museums and such when I'm in a new place, or a new exhibit in my city. It's one of the best ways to understand other cultures, and discover yourself. this includes improve, the ballet, opera, live theater.....
