About

My name is Taryn and I am a junior at Bowling Green State University. I am a very passionate traveler and have been very many places around the world. I am pursuing my dreams of travelling even farther by attending the Fall 2017 voyage of Semester At Sea. I will visit 11 countries, 13 cities, and 4 different continents over the course of 106 days. In addition to my passion of travelling I have a deep passion for history. I love to learn about military history, Native American history, and American colonial history. This is why it is my dream job to work in a big institution such as the Smithsonian or anywhere in our nations capitol. After graduating with my bachelors at BGSU I plan on getting my masters in either Archaeology or Paleontology. Once having my masters I will be a qualified curator which is my dream job.
