About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet people from different places with different backgrounds...I'm in love with culture!!

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new people and hanging out for fun. I crave traveling and being immersed in a different culture. Its liberating! I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Albania in Southeastern Europe for 2 and a half years and I loved living there because the people are amazing and full of hospitality. Its a beautiful country in a time of development and it was awesome to have that experience. I would love to go back and stay again, I already miss it so much!

I met my husband while in Albania and we have been married for 3 years. We live in the US now, but we are ready to do some traveling!!

PHILOSOPHY

Live.Laugh.Love. ~ Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show of life. ~ Treat people like you would like to be treated.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Southeast Asia and I enjoyed it so much that I have never been the same since. Peace Corps let me volunteer and live in Albania for 2 and a half years and every day was a new and amazing experience.
