CURRENT MISSION

To travel, explore, learn about new cultures, meet awesome people, and stay on a sustainable budget!

ABOUT ME

In a nutshell, i'm a free spirited & adventurous third culture kid. I'm Afghan by roots, born in Toronto grew up there and was raised in the Czech Republic for the second half of my life, but now reside in NY. I pick up on languages well and find something in common with almost anyone. I am very easy going and live a flexible stress-free lifestyle. After graduating in 2014, i've been free lancing between jobs/travels, and ended up in Seoul last year teaching the most precious little munchkins! I'm now relocating to NY more permanently to pursue a teaching career there, and taking advantage of some travelling before I'm tied down. I enjoy travelling and learning about new cultures, but on a budget and through a local non-touristy experience. I love and live life, making sure to count my blessings everyday and not take things for granted. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The time I applied for a crazy expensive backpacktivism trip with Operation Groundswell to the Middle East out of curiosity (never thinking I could actually afford to go)...Until THIS PHONE CALL HAPPENED:

They pulled my name out of a random early bird draw that made my $2800 trip fee free! It was destiny. And I fell in love with the region. The only blogpost i've ever published was regarding my first trip there, and it's become a conflict i'm very passionate about: www.thehumanstories.blogspot.com

教，学，和分享

I can cook! While I may be on a low budget, I can definitely introduce delicious but simple oriental cuisine to hosts :D
