Raised in the US, I caught the travel bug early. I first ventured to the Philippines on a foreign aid trip at 17 and then spent my year 12 at work-study music highschool in British Columbia, Canada. Then it was on to Australia in early 2015. My time there included a number of internships and volunteer positions, culminating in serving on a team of an NGO in Newcastle as a project director. In 2017 I returned to the U.S. to pursue a bachelor's degree. If all goes according to plan, May 2021 will be my last month in undergraduate studies. That's what I do and have done, but I am a person who loves people; meeting, understanding, be challenged by and challenging others - this is why I travel. I look forward to meeting you!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

A few stories of growing up in a family of many on a farm in the rural USA. I could give you some pointers on cow tipping, or how to grow your tomatoes so they don't get black leaves, or what would define a good ol' fashion bully adventure just to name a few! I'm a good listener and enjoy hearing your story and learning about your life more than telling mine but I'm happy to share what I've gathered in my few years. Growing up on the farm I learner how to work so if you need help with anything I'm happy to be of aid. I have worked as a carpenters apprentice for the past 2 years so I am happy to assist you with any of your projects. I can cook a bit, but don't hold your breath or prep your buds. I make great pasta and that's about it. Simply put, I can offer my friendship.
