About Me

ABOUT ME

I graduated University last Spring. After college I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with my life so decided to do something non traditional that would fuel my desire to travel more. I accepted a job to teach English in Jeonju, South Korea for a year. After completing the contract here I plan to backpack all around Asia and Southeast Asia. After that I will move back to NYC to begin "real life".
I decided to move away for a year because I love traveling. I think traveling is the most beautiful way to learn about other people and cultures. I am a total advocate for wanting to explore new outlets and partake in experiences that you will remember forever. I am an outgoing individual who is eager to meet new people and share stories!

PHILOSOPHY

"You lose sight of things... and when you travel, everything balances out.”

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef was one of the most amazing things I have ever done. Seeing that, changed my life and made me want to travel and see all of the cool things this world has to offer.
