CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world as thoroughly as I can (realistically)!

ABOUT ME

I currently go to the University of Minnesota. I'm an English major and I hope to one day teach English as a second language in third world countries. I will be studying abroad in the UK for a year starting September 2010, and look forward to all the travel I'll be doing!
