Margaret

Hey, I'm Margaret and I'm 23 years old, and I'm sick of punching someone else's clock. I've decided to quit my job and pursue dreams of hiking the country, and maybe eventually living and working from a car so I can spend more time with my dog. I'm a little bit impulsive, I'm very determined, and I want to get the most out of life. I'm an avid reader, gamer, and eater. Mostly, I just want to live a life worth telling stories about; where I don't dread going to work, make the world a little bit better than I found it, and hopefully inspire some others to follow their dreams too.
