About Me
ABOUT ME
Currently in my final year at University. Though by the time I get to traveling around I'll have officially graduated.
I study at the University of Edinburgh and am from New Jersey in the United States. I've traveled around some of Europe, a good portion of the United Kingdom, but admittedly only a small portion of the States. I've gotten to see Turkey, most of Western Europe, and some of Central Europe (Hungary, Slovakia).
My favorite sport is bowling and I follow ice hockey with some interest. I'm big on music; love progressive rock, metal, and electronic (both listening and dance). Don't get around to reading as much as I'd like but love horror, nothing beats a good scary story.
I'm relatively serious but I'll laugh at plenty of good (and bad) jokes. Usually easy going and like to find out more about the people and places around me (opinions, history, experiences, etc).
