The birth of CrunkeeMcghee - Knowth, Ireland

Just a few things....

Chillin' with the sheep - Tara Hill, Ireland

I am constantly searching for ways to fill my life with meaning.

Even if you only leave your country once in your lifetime, I guarantee that ONE experience will be life changing.

Love my job, but I am still looking for a career.

I avoid judging others, and it hurts when people don't give me the same courtesy.

Although I am an only child, I play well with others.

I truly feel it is through reading a variety of subjects and pushing beyond your comfort zone that ignorance and hatred can be abolished.

It is a sad thing that religions are too busy being righteous to recognize the virtues of other schools of thought and learn from them.

I once was fluent in Arabic and Turkish, but I couldn't guarantee a conversation in those languages that would make sense.

My favorite pastime is laughing loudly.

I believe you learn a lot about someone when you see how they handle talking about controversial topics.

There has always been a desire within me to embark on an adventure that would make a difference in the world (in whatever small way I can).

Owning more will not fill that hole inside.

My biggest weakness is trying to make everyone like me.

I don't claim to be an expert....

1st time in London

I have been lucky enough in my short lifetime to have seen more of the world than most see in a lifetime. Due to my parents' jobs, my childhood was spent living in Turkey and Saudi Arabia. We moved to the states when I was in the middle of 3rd grade, and it was the biggest culture shock of my life. It was then that I learned how not everyone understood there's a huge world out there, and this little town wasn't the be-all end-all.

College was when I had my first opportunity to strike out in the world on my own, and this only furthered my desire to work towards an international interest. I am still looking for that opportunity, but am enjoying what life has given me along the way.
