I grew up in a small town in a small town in Northern California where the cold Pacific Ocean meets mountains with Redwood forests and clean running rivers that lead to Alpine lakes further inland. I have just graduated from University of California in Santa Cruz and want to pursue further education. This journey to discover my passion within molecular biology has led me to western Europe where I hope to explore university campuses, see bits of the natural beauty and culture throughout multiple countries, make some new friends, and do a great deal of soul searching in order to find what really moves me.
As a guest, I adapt well to new situations and I will do my best to be courteous, friendly, and respectful. I am not a picky eater. I won't be drinking alcohol or partying. And I don't plan on staying in one place for more than just a few days.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music would be something like bluegrass, with live instruments and a beat to get your foot tapping. I also love more calm and sweet songs of different genres. I love romance and sci-fi and adventurous movies and books.
