Besides school, the things that keep her busy are dancing, judo, swimming, basketball, horseback riding, fencing, and biking. She loves taking photos and has played the piano since she was six years old.
She is currently preparing herself mentally and physically for the challenge of climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro as it is not an easy task. Miriam likes the social relevance of a "Peace Climb" and is excited and looking forward to climbing with an international team.
