Table Rock Lake, Missouri: As a child I grew up on Table Rock Lake. It is a place that has so many good memories for me including boating, spending time with my grandparents and camping! It is a beautiful place surrounded by Missouri wilderness and fun activities, such as the Branson Belle shown below.

North West Pacific Coast, US: As an Anthropology major in the Archaeology discipline there is a tremendous amount of pressure to try to decide what area of study you want to do before you get to graduate school. Most graduate schools for Archaeology are specialized in two or three areas. Last year I fell in love with the area along the NW coast of the US known as the Pacific North West. In my future I plan to go to a graduate school in this area and start my journey as a post undergraduate there!
