Hometown: Seattle, WA

Travel Locations: Chile, Ecuador, Brazil, South Africa, Uganda, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Bhutan

Travel Objectives: Stella will travel to Chile, Ecuador, Brazil, South Africa, Uganda, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Bhutan. Her goal is to rethink her taken-for-granted understandings of the places she visits and those she calls home. She hopes to use this opportunity to learn more about herself in relation to the world and to deeply consider the politics and ethics of travel. Additionally, as an enthusiast of the PNW outdoors, she is excited to explore the rivers, mountains, and forests of the places she visits.
