CURRENT MISSION

to meet and greet with as many people as POSSIBLE!

ABOUT ME

I'm a very energetic girl who loves to meet new people of all backgrounds and talk A LOT. I mean a lot, people. ;)

I love to go out to concerts, out to restaurants, work out, live, learn, and enjoy life! I believe we have a lot to learn from everyone and I have this insatiable thirst for knowledge and exploration. I love just sitting and sharing adventure stories with people who are open-minded and curious about the rest of the world.

PHILOSOPHY

I feel that you should live life as if each day is your last! Be confident with everything you do, don't let anyone tell you how to act. It's okay to be different and have your own beliefs.

As for my philosophy on traveling, I believe that we shouldn't just travel to party or indulge ourselves, but to truly understand and connect on a global scale. We are all human beings with all sorts of interests, lifestyles, and backgrounds and I feel that being aware of our differences and our similarities will ultimately tie the world together with peace.
