Favorite places I've been: Grand Canyon, Joshua Tree, Sedona, Arizona, Washington, DC, Hawaii, Portland, Oregon, Seattle, Washington, New York, Madagascar, Mexico, Ireland, Rome, Colon, Germany, Amsterdam, South Africa
Places I want to go to: Ha! Everywhere! I am currently traveling from Cape Town to Cairo, but I am hoping to be able to keep going from there. I just can't decide between Morocco or India. I want to make it around the world, but I only have my Peace Corps stipend. I am WWOOFing, couchsurfing, and finding jobs whenever I can.
About me: I was a Peace Corps volunteer (environmental education) in Madagascar until March 2009 when I was evacuated to South Africa because of political turmoil. I speak Malagasy, which is pretty unique, but will not help me get a job back in the US. So I decided just to travel until my money runs out. Armed with my video camera and laptop, I want to encourage people back in the States to get out and see the world. It is so important to experience a different culture and learn how people so far away are different, yet the same.
I have a MS in Biology, and hope to take part in conservation programs wherever I go.
