ABOUT ME

I've been living in Bulgaria for two years teaching english and doing some community development projects. I've fallen in love with my area and the country, but believe that this will happen in some other places in the world as well. I've hardly ever met a city i didn't like...some people yes, but cities, never.

Soon I will be living in Istanbul, Turkey, studying for a semester towards completion of my master's degree in urban planning.
