CURRENT MISSION

To find where it all spills forth from ....

*** I wrote this about 9 years ago. I've really got to change it but I think most of it is still true to me...***

ABOUT ME

About me..Well it's hard to say but I think i'm pretty easy to get along with. I like to think about culture in everyday situations and this makes me damn curious about everything. I'm outgoing and independent so I enjoy spending time alone in scenic spots reflecting just as much as I like being in those dingy drinking establishments feeling the music come off the walls. I've been lucky enough to travel a few places in the world and I know how hard and overwhelmingly beautiful it can all be so I just want to help out whoever I can help.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is full and fast, no matter where I am, I will try and experience all I can... And I think chocolate solves most problems*

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My Balkan adventure: walking the border between Bosnia and Serbia in the pitch black of night after hitching some odd rides, completely confusing the border guards at the sight of a short, 13year old looking girl crossing the border with her tall lanky friend. Having to sit on a small sidewalk with no ride in sight and finally sneaking a ride with a big rig only to end up sleeping in a small gas station in a no name town on a cot behind the register. Taking rides from fez wearing jokesters, finding my favorite record store in Kosovo, the enitre trip=AMAZING
