About Me
Wait, so what's this all about?
I've lived quite a few places in the last few years. Since I graduated from Northwestern University and finished my two years with Teach for America in Chicago, I have lived in Sofia Bulgaria, Karlskrona, Lund and Malmö Sweden. In between, I have traveled to fifteen countries and logged more flights and train mileage than I care to remember.
Of course with all those trip have come a lot of unique experiences. If you asked me back in 2007 if I could imagine myself in a baptism in a small Italian village, or hiking a mountain in Morocco, I probably would have have had some doubts. Of course, I've done those things, and more, since.
This is where I like to share those experiences. Not only the bare details and experiences of finding new places, but also some of the things that I learn from travel. Mark Twain said "travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness." In my experience I would have to say it holds up a mirror to your own perceptions unlike anything else.
Hope you enjoy!
