CURRENT MISSION

"hills too steep to climb, ascended (and hearts that were not afraid to flap their wings and fly)"

ABOUT ME

I grew up in New York state; however I am currently living in Istanbul on a Fulbright grant. I have a degree in archaeology, though I will be retiring from this grand profession at the ripe age of 23. I am not sure what will follow- I am open to almost anything. I never had any specific career goals. As far as life goals are concerned: to be happy, and to travel.

PHILOSOPHY

Even
After
All this time
The sun never says to the earth,

"You owe
Me."

Look
What happens
With a love like that,

It lights the
Whole
Sky.

-Hafiz
