My friend Maddy, from Australia, and I are looking to go on the "transition-into-adulthood" backpacking across Europe trip in 2016 and we want to make the trip as big of an adventure as possible. The less planning and staying in the usual hotels as possible, the better. We are looking to meet new people, hear their stories, and tell ours along the way.

My favorite kind of music is probably country music. I was raised in a small farm town, so it comes with the territory. My favorite movie is Toy Story. I thoroughly enjoy the imagination that went into making the movie and thinking of the storyline. Plus, I wish I could be a little kid again because everything was so much simpler and I think that reminds me of that. I don't really read much, only when I have to. However, I loved "Charlotte's Web" when I read it as a child.
