CURRENT MISSION

Show me your neck of the woods!

ABOUT ME

I left the pineywoods of Texas to live in Spain for the year. It has been a great adventure so far! It is a little pija -posh- here but I enjoy learning the language and meeting the hilarious people of this small town. Im kinda crazy, too sarcastic and I try to always surprise myself and the people I'm around.

I hope to live in Italy (again) and Nashville soon.

I like expensive shoes and cheap flights.

Believer and follower of Jesus Christ

I'm scared to quit learning.

PHILOSOPHY

I Love Jesus and the People He Created.

email me, Id love to get to know you.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think eye contact can do wonders. Honest communication is most effective. Local food and wine make me fall in love. If you can't say it, dance it. Smile if you mean it. Snarl if you don't. Stop tiptoeing around life. Embrace the diversity that walks in the door.
