Being an ex-Mormon in Utah, I believe, puts me in the counter-culture. I live in Salt Lake and have a liberal, free spirited outlook on life. I am quite irreverent and I love that SLC is such a drastically different place from the rest of Utah, and I believe it is because of the counter-culture. I love drinking coffee in coffee shops, drinking alcohol in bars with punny names, buying things on Sunday, getting tattoos, and more.

I was raised Mormon until I was about 13 years old. I always rebelled against it and hated going to church. I consider myself lucky that my parents stopped going to church as well and no longer forced me to go. I feel that being raised in such a box of an environment helped me to question and be curious about everything else that is out there to learn and know. I didn't like being constrained and told how to live my entire life. This upbringing really brought out my inner rebel which shines through me to this day! If it weren't for this, I don't think I would be the curious explorer that I am now.

Ever since I was an exchange student in France, I have loved learning languages. I was fascinated by the fact that learning another language helps you understand your first language even better and at a deeper level. I love being immersed in a place that speaks a different language and find it so exciting to practice the language with the locals. When I was in France with a comfortable level of French, I had a Colombian friend who made me really want to learn Spanish. Now my husband's first language is Spanish and I am able to learn it through him. I would love to live in a Spanish speaking country to solidify my ability to speak Spanish, and then continue doing that with any language I can!

I am extremely passionate about traveling and exploring the world. I am fascinated by different cultures and the way that life is normal for the people in that culture. I love wandering through new cities and towns and talking to locals. I love finding local hot spots and embracing each culture whole heartedly. My goal in life is to explore the world and live in as many different places and cultures that I possibly can.

I passionately love all animals. I love going to farms and petting zoos and being able to pet cows, goats, and more. I especially love baby animals. Many people think I'm gross when I pet baby cows and they end up licking my hand and putting my entire fist in their mouth! I also love dogs and cats so much. I have always grown up with animals at home, whether they be dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits, and horses. Dogs may be the best creatures on earth in my opinion!
