ABOUT ME

I was born in Cleveland, Ohio, United States and moved to Australia right after high school. I lived in Melbourne for almost five years and am now back in Cleveland, looking for a way to get out again! I have been to Japan, Scandinavia and Eastern Europe..plus much of Australia and the US. I have plans to return to Europe this autumn and Australia in march of next year.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Waking up on a beach in Coffs Harbour while joggers gave us funny looks thinking "i hope we laugh about this one day!"

Walking down the street in Tampere, Finland at 3 in the morning while it was still light outside and deserted...what a strangely cinematic and exciting feeling...
