Hey there, I'm Lauren. I was born in Honolulu, Hawaii & I spent four years living in Germany, four in Washington D.C., one in Kansas, two in Washington State, etc. My passions are politics, the environment, and animal rights. I'll be the first one to tell you, I am very liberal and I'm not afraid to share my opinions. I try to respect everyone since everyone lives by a different set of values and I believe in listening to others' ideals, however different they may be from my own.
