CURRENT MISSION

consume copious, reckless amounts of art

ABOUT ME

I am a consumer of knowledge and my brain is never full. I'm just trying to smoosh everything in there.

Succinctly, 22 year old Canadian lady who is currently doing a teaching internship and travelling on weekends, bank holidays, and midterm break. Starting a masters degree in the fall and need to hop around a bit before settling down again!

PHILOSOPHY

Drink knowledge like water, have your mind never full, your curiosity never sated. Be awed by the beauty of the universe, from great galaxies to the tiny, chaotic world of every atom.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I loved snorkelling with sea turtles! I would love to add to this list..

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Well I can play most wind instruments, some guitar and keyboard. I can teach basic music performance and theory skills for anyone interested in picking up something new! I'd love to know how to cook better, especially on low budget or on the go.
