ABOUT ME

I got hooked on travel while studying abroad in Berlin. Currently, I am a student in the Erasmus Mundus Master of Global Studies Program and I love it! I believe that we, the people of the world, can do better at getting along and working towards bettering our consciousness. In months of traveling around Europe, I have engaged in enriching discourse with people from all over the world with unique perspectives on developments in the world and have learned that the diverse views of the citizens of the world are best discovered first-hand after climbing up to the other person's vantage point to gaze at the planet side-by-side with them.

I want to live in the present, giving generously and receiving graciously.
