ABOUT ME

I have wanted to travel the world since before I can remember, and have finally gotten a bit of it under my belt! I'm originally from outside of Madison, Wisconsin, USA, and ended up back there to study as well. I've recently departed from Utrecht, Netherlands, where I was living, studying, and playing for the past 6 months. Now, it's time to do some self-searching and future finding. I am curious, spontaneous, laid-back, and ready for an adventure. I love music and have made experiencing live music a priority. My interest in food begins at soil-level and continues through preparation and EATING! I am almost a vegetarian and try to be as conscious of my food choices as possible. I am a gardener, scholar, nature-explorer and am on track to be a student for life- I hope to never stop learning, discussing, exploring, and asking questions.
