About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make a difference while I'm able to!!!

ABOUT ME

I love food, language, and culture. Naturally this means travel is for me :) I love the friends I have made and some are more like family than friends. I love how we all get each other's back in travel but I really like to chill with the native people of the country I visit. Also chill in their kitchen haha. I can cook quite well and this is good because my metabolism is crazy haha!

PHILOSOPHY

I love and live. When a door is presented to me, I walk thru it if it's got a good feeling. I believe that by being positive you make everything around you positive and positive comes back to you.
