ABOUT ME

LA GRINGA

People say I'm crazy, but in a good way :)

And if you're nice to me, I'll make you a gin bucket!

My first big trips abroad were in the summers of 2007-2009, teaching English at summer camps all across Italy.

My travels throughout Europe and the Middle East were absolutely amazing and I was so grateful to cs for giving me the opportunity to meet some of the most crazy, kind, and interesting people I've ever come across!!

For the greater part of 2012 I backpacked through nearly all of South America. The people, culture, and nightlife were all amazing and my only regret is not learning more Spanish while I was down there...well that and the Brazilian flag tattoo from my hostel in Rio :)

el camino, y nada mas /
caminante, no hay camino
