CURRENT MISSION

to meet people from all over the world, to know someone from every country! :)

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the state of Washington (in the Northwest corner of the United States) and I go to school there too. It's very beautiful, and I love living there! I've studied in the Czech Republic twice and I love traveling. Right now I've only been to Europe, but I'm planning a trip to China in late 2009 and possibly Latin American in 2010.

PHILOSOPHY

Smile. You could change someone's world just by being happy

Music, Movies, and Books

It all depends on my mood, I know, that's such a disclaimer, but ok...most of the time for music it's something chill or alternative, and the only music I don't really like is bad rap (hip hop is a whole different story). As for movies, I'm usually up for anything, as long as it's not too strange. I don't really like horror movies either. And books, I LOVE books. That's where I can say that I really do love anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'd have to say that it's the people I've met that really make everything I've done and seen amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Um, I can ballroom dance. And somehow manage to find really cool places while getting lost. I also know a couple languages, and lots of random quirky historical facts.

Austria, France, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Switzerland
