About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To step out of my Georgia bubble!

ABOUT ME

I'm a 21 year old college student, about to finish my bachelor's at Georgia Tech. I just recently wandered out of North America and into Europe, my first time here! I will be spending my summer in Strasbourg, France. Already I'm finding that travel is addictive, even though I've just gotten a little taste. If you will also be in Strasbourg or nearby, I am looking for traveling buddies to go anywhere at all! I'm also looking to make friends in the city. :)

I'd have to say that the trait I'm most proud of is my openmindedness. I like to surround myself with all kinds of interesting people, regardless of age, ethnicity, interests, or whether they are cat or dog people. :) I have very low standards for food -- give me something, and I'll most likely think it's delicious without knowing what it is.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm motivated by the thought of my next delicious meal.

Okay, fine. I try my best to have zero enemies. :)
