CURRENT MISSION

To learn from people and places around the world.

ABOUT ME

I am a student in Claremont, CA majoring in Psychology and French Studies. I like to travel and meet people from around the world. From my travels, I have learned that miscommunication can only lead to adventure and that the lack of a common language is, therefore, more of a bridge than a barrier.
