I love to travel, meet people and learn things! My favorite parts of traveling are walking around a new place and trying the food. :)

I work as a professional in the financial sector; I have a side job for fun teaching beginning rock climbers. One of my passions is writing. I got my bachelors and graduate degrees are in political science and journalism.
