I recently went on a trip to Northern India where I trekked through the Ladakh region and loved it!
My background in philosophy has affected me as well. I enjoy talking about subjects that don't often get brought up in today's world. I like to hear about different worldviews and engage in conversation with people who have different ideas than my own.
But most importantly I am an outgoing, happy person who is easy to talk to and get a long with.

Kristin N
Profession: English tutor, freelance writer.
Interests: I like to spend as much free time as I can doing things that I love and that will make me happy. It is so important to make time for the things in life you really enjoy. When I have spare time I love spending time with animals. I love to volunteering at shelters and have helped start a charity.
I have also discovered a new love of cooking and learning to cook new dishes. I enjoy to read a good book whenever it is possible, I prefer Non-Fiction books more; but I am always willing to try something new. Not much can compare to a really good book. I have always enjoyed writing in my free time, I used to be on my school newspaper and I have always liked to write short stories of my own.
Education: I am a lifelong learner and love to read and expand my horizons whenever it’s possible. I still take courses online in subjects I need or like, so I am always learning. However, I love learning, and all the ways you can learn.I believe that you can learn in more places than just a school environment.
