Hi Everyone! My name is Kristine and I'm from Irvine California! Experiencing Voyages during my freshman year introduced me to the PNW and how I love being active outside and going on trips. It made me want to lead a trip because I had such a fun time and made so many friends. When I can I love being in the water, whether surfing, swimming or sailing. When I'm not outside I love reading and watching Netflix (always open to new recommendations!) I can't wait to see you all soon in August :)
