She spent the summers of 2007 and 2008 working with the American Institute of Musical Studies in Graz, Austria. She took that opportunity to travel throughout Europe, writing several stories which were subsequently published in Classical Singer and travelgirl Magazines.
Her lifelong passion for travel has driven her to the far corners of the globe, from taking a dip in the waters off Cheju Island, Korea to hiking the Blue Mountains of Sydney, Australia to skiing the French Alps of Courchevel, France.
