CURRENT MISSION

Getting to know the beautiful town of Blacksburg, VA. I really love it so far, but I don't know anyone and I am pretty lonely!

ABOUT ME

I am new to Blackgsburg and I'm keeping myself busy by exploring the town and the local hiking and horseback riding trails. But I would love to meet some new friends that could show me around the area.

Some of my favorite things to do are photography, hiking, traveling and pretty much anything outdoors. This is why I am really enjoying Blacksburg so far...there's so much to do outdoors! Other than that, I really enjoy learning about other cultures, trying new foods, activities and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

"Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there with open arms and open eyes!"
- Brandon Boyd, Incubus

“Man…sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
- The Dalai Lama (when asked what surprises him the most about humanity)
