About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to travel and learn about Southeast Asia until I have to go home again

ABOUT ME

I'm traveling in Southeast Asia for a month and hoping to meet up with people especially June 8 to 11 when traveling on my own. I live in Chicago and work as a therapist. I was previously a Peace Corps volunteer in the Dominican Republic and would love to meet up with Peace Corps volunteers over here.
