I grew up in the States and have lived in NZ for a decade. I work part-time at Pegasus Books, a second-hand bookshop in Wellington and have been living the starving artist's existence for ages - i.e. reading, writing, hanging with friends, playing football, a little travel. It's my second time in Europe, both times mostly spent in France.
