I love meeting locals from the cities I visit. I think is a great way to exchange cultures and different perspectives of the world.

- I did two family exchanges for 6 months. First in Switzerland when I was 10 and then with a host family when I was 10, and France when I was 12. - I was "unschooled" through high school. Which means I took part of my own education and created my own curriculum. - I backpacked through Europe for a month when I was 15. - I interned for a newspaper in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. - I spent two months volunteering in India.
