I'm an American and have been living in South Africa for five years. I grew up in small town America, and somewhere along the way I was bitten by the travel bug. It eventually took me to New York, California, Europe and now South Africa. Living abroad has been full of challenges and joys - but mostly it makes me appreciate the beautiful places and experiences that lie just beyond my doorstep. I hope my stories and photography are enough to make your feet itch and your mind wander.
