One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled by myself for 10 days in October 2011 in Greece, Istanbul, Vienna, Prague, and Warsaw...It was the biggest accomplishment of my life for several reasons #1) I was by myself #2) I traveled without a phone #3) I am a female and according to the world, being a female and traveling alone is dangerous, but I defied those statistics.

I survived, I saw Eastern Europe and I loved every minute of it! I learned a lot about myself and how I function when alone, cold, and drenched to the bone...I am even more proud of myself because it was like an out-of-body experience...usually I would never do anything like this, but I did!!! Now, I will have stories to share for the rest of my life! :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to be a better listener.

I want to learn how to conquer fear. I would also like to learn how to be a bartender.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Canada, Czech Republic, Greece, Mexico, Poland, Turkey, United States
