Hello! I'm a 22 year old anthropology and geography major. I should be graduating this year. I was born and live in Maine and am proud to say "wicked" when I mean "really." I love maps, traveling and awkward silence. It is impossible to offend me.

I love green, particularly the brighter shade of pea soup. I also generally love really saturated colors, I'm not huge on pastels. They have their place though.
