Amanda McDonald

Born and raised in the greater Bangor area. I've always been involved in outdoor activities, there is no place I'd rather be than the beautiful Maine woods! I'm a huge history buff, easily fascinated with antiques and abandoned buildings. This is a reason I spend my Saturday nights with the East Coast Ghost Trackers! Everyone who knows me knows my cats (Sheep and Butter) are my fur children. I'm a talker who loves to meet new, interesting people.
