My next destination:
Romania - from Apr 2024 until May 2024 View allDescription
Hello! I'm Kierian Overbeek. I'm 18 years old and was raised in Holland Michigan, and Austin Texas USA. I love learning about different cultures and even more living and immersing myself in them as much as possible. I also love volunteering and will always try to spend my free time finding and doing volunteer work.
I plan on taking this year as a gap year and spend some of it exploring Europe and maybe parts of Africa or the middle East before I go to college in Texas (hopefully majoring in global studies and international relations).Interests
