CURRENT MISSION

My mission: learn German and French! And finish this Master's...

ABOUT ME

I am...well, for starters, bad at this kind of stuff. Time for some humblebrag. I'd say I'm a really easy person to be around!

I just moved to Amsterdam to study the Law and Politics of International Security at the VU Amsterdam. For the past two years-ish I lived in Vienna where I babysat, learned German, and basically just had a great time. After I graduated Uni in Canada I took off to Europe and I hope to ride around this continent as long as I can, from visa to visa. My passion is learning languages and ... well, eating. I mean, come on.

PHILOSOPHY

EVERYBODY LOVE EVERYBODY.

Interests

Also: Music, mostly of the electronic and/or folk variety, as well as reading - novels, biographies, history, anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Madrid sunset! Sweet baby Jesus, that was beautiful.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could help anyone with English...with French grammar...that's all I'm really good at I think!

I'd love to learn yoga, and how to draw, and how to sew clothes, and how to actually swim and not just doggy paddle, and lots of other things.
