Although it would be easy enough to rent a hotel and go explore aimlessly on my own, I travel to learn about the culture not merely to see sites. It is in people where my fondest memories have been made, so as I take a giant leap of faith away from a career in which I've invested eight years of my life to travel for a year prior to grad school, I hope to have others as part of my journey!

Music- I listen to pretty much anything that makes me happy Movies- Big Fish, Moulin Rouge, The Art of Flight, Human Planet Books- Catch 22, The Screwtape Letters, Good to Great, Start with Why, Unbroken, Deep, Confessions
