Hi! I'm Tess. I'm a feminist writer, who fervently keeps up with tv, politics and health. You can find me trying to get a hang on meditation or crying over a quote by a writer who's been through some shit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Going on a bike ride from Colorado Springs to Los Angeles starting in May!
