ABOUT ME

I grew up in a beach town in California. I'm a people person through and through. Lived in Berlin and worked as an au pair while I took time off school. When I am studying, I reside in Santa Cruz, CA and learn about environmental studies-related stuff. I've worked at a natural foods cooperative. I've spent a decent amount of time traveling through Europe. I like to have a good time, I'm silly, and I smile more often than not. I love life and I love people who love life. I am a loyal friend and I love learning from those around me. I am adventurous and laid back. I, however, am not a fan of selling myself so come see for yourself if you like!

PHILOSOPHY

Approach life with an open mind and an adventurous spirit. And have fun damn it, life is great!

音乐、电影和书籍

A Single Man
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer
Always down to watch Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, or Harry Potter.

I listen to music at all times of the day and night, to pick me up or calm me down. For me, music festivals are the pinnacle of joy; a group of people all coming together and letting the senses come alive. Fat Freddy's Drop, James Blake, Mason Jennings, Devil Makes Three, Frankie Knuckles, Little Dragon, , David Bowie, and Beyonce are a few favorites. As funky / soulful as it gets
Siddhartha. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. The Unbearable Lightness of Being.
