CURRENT MISSION

Go around the world, find new friends, and share all things, happiness and toys (the slogan on the water bottle Meg got in Nepal).

ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm Megan and this is my friend Shaila. We like to think of ourselves as interesting and super fun to be with. Shay (Shaila's nickname) is into exercise science and dreams of living in the mountains. Meg likes being a Sociology nerd (reading Marx and doing social experiments) and thinks she'll probably move to Antarctica some day. Both of us wear Crocs and like to photograph them wherever we go. We also both have a crush on the new James Bond, Daniel Craig. Most importantly, we want to see the world and save the planet (even though Meg doesn't believe in global warming and Shay does). We tend to get injuries because we take risks- Meg took a nasty spill while trekking and Shay fell off her bed recently and cracked 2 ribs (which has turned her into a silent laugher because it hurts her to laugh). We think its funny to yell "it burns!" and "I'm dying!" and see what kind of reactions we get. AND we're really exciting to start surfing some sweet couches!

PHILOSOPHY
