Hometown: Hughesville, PA

Hi! My name is Lauren Hall and I'm from a small town in PA but I love to travel! I play tennis and run distance in track, I'm involved in numerous school activities and clubs, and I enjoy playing guitar and piano. This fall I will be a senior, in college I would like to double (maybe triple) major in International Business and Marketing, as well as become fluent in Spanish and Portugese. Spanish is one of the classes I am passionate about in school. I love learning about Spanish cultures all around the world, especially the different accents, traditions, values, and most importantly foods. I'm hoping to learn all of this and more on my trip to Pisac, Peru this summer. Enjoy reading!
