CURRENT MISSION

getting lost, having fun and trying something new

ABOUT ME

hello!

i just finished school and am looking to meet new people and see all those places i've always heard about. like to think that i'm polite, easy-going, social but not extroverted. i am interested in seeing how other people live and what they think is great about it.

right now, i'm doing the typical north american thing and touring europe because i'm ignorant. but hey, at least i want to learn and see and do!

i'm a pretty open book. i listen. i want to know what people have to say. and i don't mind if you have nothing to say at all.

i don't like snobby people, or those who feel that they've already learned everything there is to know. i also don't like people who think they have all the answers.

PHILOSOPHY

better to fail than not try at all.
only you hold yourself back.
don't fret the small stuff.
change your perspective.
change with change.
