ABOUT ME

I am a joyful spectator of life, and want to live it like a gift. I love to be around people, I'm a laid back, and uncomplicated, and I LOVE learning. I'm here from Midwest America to learn language and culture between undergraduate and graduate degrees.

PHILOSOPHY

Most importantly, we've got to have faith in faith, and then faith in each other! I am so grateful each person needs others in order to have joy, meaning, and contentment.
