  • Description

    I'm a 19 year old student who is traveling around Colombia for the summer. This trip is a chance for me to connect with my family's home country, learn Spanish, and understand what being Colombian and American means to me.

    I spend my time making jewelry, felting, sculpting, writing, and hiking. I love using my hands to make. I'm most comfortable in nature, connecting with the earth. My favorite work I've ever done was while volunteering on a permaculture farming project, where I got to work with the land instead of against it. I love to get my hands dirty :)
