CURRENT MISSION

To not only see the world, but to understand it and respect it. To have fun, but with depth and meaning!

ABOUT ME

A student of anthropology and world traveler. I love food and the arts, and try to be active...although I'm a sucker for relaxation, as well! I prefer personal conversations over crazy parties, and love to see what life is like around the world, even the seemingly mundane and "normal". Normal is relative.

PHILOSOPHY

Knowledge is power...and freedom. Whether in or out of school, having an open, curious, respectful mind is always best.

By improving ourselves, we can better serve others--both locally within our daily realm of life, and also on a larger, more global scale. One of the best ways to learn about oneself and others simultaneously is through travel. Not just passing through places to check off a list and see some buildings, but truly seeing, hearing, connecting, and understanding a place and the people within it!
