Hi, my name is Cody/Coco/Coconino/tofu/Granola/Fishy/ Super Pollo/ (Jessie– my sister is Jess and sometimes I am called that, and I will most likely respond) — I’ve got a lot of nicknames 
Any who, I grew up in the most beautiful place ever, Buena vista, CO! I lived on a ranch/summer camp for 12 years and then moved next door when my parents started The Link School. I graduated high school from BVHS in 2009 and have spent my freshman year of college at the University of Colorado Denver. I originally was planning on majoring in photography but after first semester I realized that 1) that wasn’t what I wanted to do and 2) downtown denver was not for me. So now I am going to be attending the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs focusing on majoring in Environmental Science with a minor in Business Management for Sustainable Development. I can’t wait to start next fall, I have all these great plans for growing some of my own herbs and spices, trying to buy locally, just cooking for myself in general!! But I must say that this year I have made 2 of my greatest friends in the world– Tanisha Cocetti and Erica Medina. These two lovely ladies have put up with my craziness from my weird recycling habits, eating habits and god forbid going to bed before midnight and getting up before 9 am I love them both to death!! Tanisha comes from an italian family and makes really really really yummy food!!! I swear we went over to her house one night, she just rummaged through the fridge, pulled out random stuff and threw it in the pot of what she was claiming to be risotto… I gotta say it was AMAZING. That actually doesn’t begin to cover it. It was spectacular, possibly heavenly YUM! Miss Erica is from Pueblo and loves her dogs Philip and Ms. Lilly– they are pretty cute even if they are small. She wants to become a lawyer and won’t major in anything else! She is always wearing super cute dresses and skirts– I wish I had her wardrobe! 
I am still dating the most amazing guy in the world, Matt. Right now we only get to see each other some times on the weekends because I chose not to go to UCCS this year where he is– but that is all changing this fall! He and I work together at the new hit restaurant in BV, The Eddyline Restaurant and Brew Pub. Come check it out! It has really good food and for those of you over 21 great beer. Ok back to Matt. It is hard for me to find people who are exactly like me and I must say he is pretty darn close. We both LOVE to go camping and be in the wilderness. He is an amazing raft guide and cook. He can actually throw pizza dough in the air and catch it– lucky! Plus he is super adorable! and he claims I am the best buddle cubbie in the world!! 
Oh and he drives a Subaru! He is planning on majoring in history and then possibly going on to get his PH.D. I must say that not learning anything in U.S history my junior year of high school has really put me back a few steps in the history realm, but that’s ok cause Matt is always catching me up– thanks love.
Hmm, well less about my life recently. In 2006 my family and I walked from Canada to Mexico along the Continental Divide with our 2 donkeys and our dog. It was the trip of a lifetime and I hope that some day I will be able to do it again. In 2008 I got to watch Manchester United play Aston Villa at Old Tratford! That was amazing! I didn’t even care it was pouring rain– I got to watch Man U. LIVE! On that same trip I got to go to my family’s homeland of Wales, beautiful place. Then that summer Jess and I were graced with the opportunity to travel to Switzerland– another beautiful place that I would love to go back to and see more of. When I was in middle school I got to travel to asia and south america– those were both super fun trips! I have been to Greneda down near Venezuela. Also in middle school my family and I got to head up to the Yukon and go dog sledding. Hmm I have rafted all of the Green and all of the Colorado rivers– minus the Grand Canyon, but that is on the list of things to do.
Oh and as mentioned before my parents now run The Link School the coolest high school ever! They just got back from the Grand Canyon. They have been to Peru, Mexico and are going to Spain and Turkey next year!! check out their website– thelinkschool.org
Well I think that wasn’t a very good “about” page but oh well.
Cheers!
Cody
