Holly Golightly

Breakfast at Tiffany's is my favorite movie. Prostitution aside, I see a large part of Holly Golightly in myself. I was born with an enormous sense of curiosity and am rarely phased by anything. For better or for worse, I am such a drifter. The idea of an extremely structured life is unappealing to me--at least at 21. Thus, I am off to see the world, fearlessly grasping onto opportunities that allow me to travel. I have lived abroad before (Leuven, Belgium), however I am in the midst of planning a year in Asia, where I know absolutely no one and will be completely fending for myself. I am an extremely independent person but when it comes to a comfortable lifestyle, I have always been cared for. It will be a ruthlessly exciting adventure to be cut off from my known security and wander into an unknown world.
