CURRENT MISSION Learn as much as I can from life ABOUT ME I am currently working as a language assistant in Lille. I love being out in nature. I love to be in company of people who help me learn about life. I was born and raised in Portland,OR. I lived in Poitiers, France. three years ago when I was studying at the University of Poitiers. France was also a country that stole my heart with its many monuments, landscapes, people and delicious baguettes. I have worked as an Au pair in Italy. While I was living in France I got to travel all over the country and to some of the neighboring countries, too. In my travels I meet amazing people that helped learn more about the countries that I visited and the language. PHILOSOPHY Make the most out of my time on this place called earth

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Visiting Switzerland(Basel) for only 20mins because my friends and I realized we didn't have any Francs to buy food Exploring Marseilles entirely by foot! So I can say that I know Marseille pretty well. Hitchhiking to Barcelona with a friend and where we slept at the airport because our host never showed up, so we decided to sleep at the airport for most of our trip :). Saw the WHOLE city on foot! oh and got robbed too! But that's ok because we still had an amazing time Getting stuck at the LAX parking structure with a mini bus hahahah
