CURRENT MISSION I want to meet people from all over the world, enjoy my new home in Austria, and see more of Europe on this new adventure. ABOUT ME 22 year old American currently living in the beautiful city of Graz, Austria, teaching English to high school students and attempting to learn the language, culture and the art of meeting new people. I love snow, architecture, hobbits, tea, accents, painting, vikings, trains, travel, musicals, etc. I studied German at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, OR and am now in Austria thanks to the Fulbright Commission and the Austrian American Educational Commission. PHILOSOPHY A room without books is like a body without a soul. - Cicero Do not be afraid to do the ridiculous in life: ridiculousness always ends in laughter. (Mine or yours, so long as someone's laughing, right?)
