Me.
The section where I get to talk about me me me.
What is there to say?
A lifelong resident of Nashville, TN (music-jesus-city USA), I recently graduated from Vanderbilt University with a degree in English literature and minors in French and Art (printmaking) which rounds out a trip through “useless bohemian knowledge land” and results in a piece of paper saying “I am smart. I can carry on sparkling dinner conversation. And I am now over qualified for all jobs the bohemian life could ever offer”
In an effort to escape the ever encroaching future, economic depressions/american cultural malaise, and the many “grown up” things that would soon have tied me down forever I am moving to Taipei, Taiwan with my long-time friend Tina Wu.
We have no jobs, no housing, no money. Only plane tickets and lots of grandiose plans and hopes.
Teaching Engrish to the masses is the source of income and only in the following weeks can this blog catch everyone up on the adventures and results of this plan.
Let’s begin.

I think we have a special girl in our midst. She is not only smart, but brave to face the foreign, scarey world. We have no doubt she will return home next year a tiny bit homesick and full of hugs for us, her family.
Today I’ve found your blog and I want to tell you that I felt a healthy envy when I first read your words.
In fact, you have to be very brave to just buy some plane tickets and go to the other side of the world.
Congratulations and good job!
