About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I would like to travel all over the world and meet interesting people and make friends on the way.

ABOUT ME

I am an idependent, easygoing, goofy, and funloving person that loves to learn about different cultures and ethnicities. I absolutely LOVE to travel and explore down the road less traveled. I prefer to stay at homestays because I feel u learn about a culture and region best by staying with a local. If I had the choice, I would travel ALL the time, but since I teach, I can only travel during vacation time (thanksgiving, christmas, spring break, easter, and summer vacation).

PHILOSOPHY

The Golden Rule...need I say more...
