CURRENT MISSION My response rate is so low because I was living in rural Guatemala for the past few years and did not have constant access to internet. After this trip I will be back in the States and am excited to host fellow Couch Surfers! ABOUT ME I am a liberal who was born and raised in Texas, so I can get a long well with most people. :-) I love political cartoons. I tried to make a list of 101 things to do in the next 1,001 days...made it to 99 and then lost the list. I enjoy learning new languages and meeting new people. My main focus in school was on East and Central Africa. I studied in 2008 in Kampala, Uganda. I also studied in Kigali, Rwanda and in Tanzania. PHILOSOPHY "If we have not achieved our early dreams, we must either find new ones or see what we can salvage from the old. There is clearly much left to be done, and whatever else we are going to do, we had better get on with it." -Rosalynn Carter
