Hobbies

In my spare time I swim (rain or shine), hone-in on my own personal yoga practice, cook, run, read, and write. Currently in the process or re-reading  Sally Rooney's Normal People- a highly emotional experience. I love animals, I love people. I love our earth and value sustainability and peaceful co-existence with our universe. I love travelling between semesters, and I love immersing myself in as many different cultures as I can.
