About me
If I could travel full time, I would! But silly me chose to major in management, instead of photography or creative writing (so I could work for National Geographic Traveller). So now I travel whenever my boss lets me take 2 weeks off. So far I’ve been to Russia, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, and Holland (3 times!!!). Does the US count if that’s where I live? I’m busy planning my coast-to-coast road trip.Recent activity
