My name is Hayden Schwarting and I’m a 17 year old in the middle of her senior year (woohoo class of 2016!!). I guess you’d say I’m from Virginia Beach, but I need multiple hands to count the amount of times I’ve moved in my life. 

Saltwater, fresh flowers, pretty sunsets, real Italian pizza, cute kiddos, vanilla ice cream, long conversations, football games, dancing (Long walks on the beach…….)- these are a few of my favorite things…sorry I’m a theater nerd:)

Okay, but for real..

For starters, I should probably rent out a room at my school, considering I never leave and extracurriculars are practically my career, but I also work at this little, fairly unknown, coffee shop called Starbucks… I know, I’m so basic, I’m sorry. But I make good coffee! 

My family is crazy to say the least, but we love ’em. 

I live in a house of 8- three generations (at least) under one roof. Grandparents, parents, two teenagers & two toddlers… and two dogs!!!!! wow. Everyday is an adventure. 

Other than those super interesting facts about me, I just really love Jesus and I really love travel. And that would be where the World Race comes in. 

Words cannot describe how excited I am to be taking part in such an amazing opportunity, and I can’t wait to see where God leads me and my squad mates on this adventure for Him! 

xoxo,

Hayds
