I'm a Neuroscience/Pre-Med student blogging about my past experiences with travel and my current experiences as I transition into a University student for the next 6-8 years. I like to think of it as a 'time capsule' sort of thing.

Besides my passion for medicine; I also love improving my writing, international cultures, and languages. I've studied Japanese, German, French, and Spanish. I've done an exchange to Austria, and I've hosted Japanese students. I was suppose to exchange to Yokohama, Japan. Unfortunately, the tsunami happened and it cancelled.

In the future, I'd like to do research on natal neuroscience hopefully to get some experience and knowledge on how to identify or diagnose Autism Spectrum and other disabilites during pregnancy. Hopefully in a couple years, technology advances will enable us to prevent or block the process of disabilities developing and/or genetic mutation.

My severely Autistic sister drives me everyday and is the most important person in my entire life, always has been since she was born. Hardships in her life and in mine have led me to take the path I'm on.

I'm interested in learning more about the above said research. If you are doing similar research or have relevant information, do not hesitate to pass it on! Greatly appreciated! I also love teaching or aiding people learn/improve on their English skills!
