Introduction I'm half-humanitarian half-overachiever with a dab of creative oddball. I'm quirky, cheerful and very self-motivated. I believe in the power of laughter and spirituality. I love surprises and believe that all things work together for good. I am passionate about life and believe discovering its essence means surrounding yourself with different opinions, cultures and ideas. I'm planning on traveling abroad again in the next two year to teach English either somewhere in Europe or South America. I studied in Barcelona Spain in the fall of 2008 and have compiled a few of my experiences and photos here, most of which were published in the Texas State University Star.
