About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore as much of the Eastern Hemisphere as possible while living in Japan!

ABOUT ME

We are a pair old souls who happened to find each other in this crazy world. I am a comp sci and math student and former linguist and my husband is the automotive industry. In reality we are a pair of travelers on assignment in Japan for 3 years and on a mission to explore as much of Asia as possible before going back to the US.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is meant to be lived and enjoyed, not squandered away doing something you hate. Enjoy life while you have it and if you can find someone to share it with than even better.

Teach, Learn, Share

He is a genius at anything automotive and can take pretty much anything apart and put it back together so I would say he is the "Practical" half, where I am more interested in the ways of the world and am very inquisitive so I would say I'm the "Philosophical" half. Together we make a great team and can hold a meaningful conversation about pretty much anything.
