ABOUT ME

We are two people. I am Taylor and she is Charlotte. We both grew up and met in Peterborough, Ontario Canada. We have spent most of our lives in Peterborough where we have gone to a variety of schools and amassed a good number of tight friends. Amongst other things, I study/practice Physics and Philosophy and Charlotte studies Cultural Studies and Languages. We have spent some time in Germany and different spots in Canada. We are laid back, but like to work hard. We love to have good times, and are always up for adventures.
