Hi friends 🙂
My name is Caroline Stark. I am 17 years old and am originally from Kimberly, Alabama but am now living in Bucharest, Romania. Living here has allowed me to visit so many amazing and interesting places. In my not-so-professional opinion, I would recommend travelling to Poland, Ireland, and Italy! I have a family of four; me, my mom and dad, and sister Anna. We also have a cat named Mâta, which means cat in Romanian. Yes, I know, we are so clever.
Some of the girls in my WR cohort sent some really good questions so here are the answers to a few of them:
– What is your MBTI or Enneagram? I am an ISFJ-t and a 3w2.
– What is your favorite book and movie? I loved reading the Selection series and some classics that I love to watch are Dirty Dancing, Grease, and Pride and Prejudice! Also, any and all disney princess movies.
– Are you a night owl or a morning person? I love to stay up late. Definitely not a morning person except for when I wake up for 5am flights.
– Have you been outside of the country? What countries? Yes! I’ve been to Mexico, Aruba, Nicaragua, Romania, Italy, Greece, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Sweden, Ireland, England, Czeck Republic, Bulgaria, and Poland.
– Do you have any extra-curricular activities? Sadly, because of Covid-19, all of my sport seasons were cancelled. But, I am currently learning new songs on piano and trying to crochet.
– What does the next year look like for you? STRESSFUL lol. Honestly, I just want to graduate, but I am trying to soak up this last year in Europe! Hopefully after flying home and going to bootcamp I can finally get my drivers license and find a summer job or nanny/babysit for a bit before I leave for the race.
– Biggest fears for the race? Even though I’m a country girl, I am not excited for the bugs/animals! Also trying new (kinda gross) foods is a bit nerve racking. I also think it is going to be very hard for me to leave my family for 9 months. And if anyone can help me out, please let me know how I am supposed to pack my entire life into a bag!
Thank you so much for taking the time to read a little bit about me. I would love to get to know you! Please reach out on Instagram or Facebook. Also, I would appreciate prayers as I begin fundraising and preparing for the time that I will spend overseas doing something bigger than myself. I am so thankful and blessed for this opportunity I get to take.
All the love,
Caroline
