CURRENT MISSION

Keep it Real

ABOUT ME
I am 27 and a mother of 1 and one on the way! I am also married to the best guy ever - Paul Spanel - who is also on CS. We used to travel a lot more but we still dream about it every chance we get and once we get a bit more settled we plan on hosting folks here in Columbus.

Our passion is traveling - the first time we ever met each other was actually on a plane... so I guess traveling together was fate :) Together, we have been all over Europe and we try and get out of the United States, any chance we get.

We both love meeting new people and having as many experiences as possible in new cultures and places. There is so much to learn in the world and I just wish I had more time to discover it.

PHILOSOPHY

I have always felt that my life's purpose is to experience all that I can while helping others do the same. I feel no greater satisfaction in life than when I am truly making a difference in someone else's life. I love helping others enjoy everything life has to offer. If I had a million dollars I would improve the lives of millions.
