Sobre mí

Interpreter.
Amateur French horn player.
Born and raised in the Golden State.

I'm a picker, I'm a grinner, I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner.

I sometimes sleep with my eyes half-open.

Algo increíble que he hecho

-Standing alone on Karl Marx Street (usually the busiest street) in Irkutsk at 5:00a.m. in -40 degree weather. I was sure I was in a snow-globe in another person's dream, as it was definitely too surreal to be real life.

-Exchange year in Clermont-Ferrand, France. One of the best years of my life.

-Semester in Irkutsk, "The Paris of Siberia" (according to people from Irkutsk).

-Every single one of my travels (international and domestic alike) has been amazing in its own way.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Always happy to exchange languages!
