Welcome to my life! I figured that because my blog has been up and running for about 5 months now I should tell you a little about myself.

20 Facts about Me

1. I am 25 years old.

2. My birthday is a couple’s holiday in Japan and South Korea : White’s Day. Yay chocolate!

3. I was born in Okinawa, Japan but would qualify to run for POTUS.

4. My eyes are grey blue. No one in my family has brown eyes.

5. I’m a coffee addict.

6. I am TESOL certified.

7. I earned my certificate in Barcelona, my second favorite city!

8. London is my favorite city. I visited when I was younger and it was love at first sight!

9. My ancestor was on the Mayflower, but I’m likely related through a female or non-first child.

10. I’ve lived in 7 different US states and countries.

11. I played tennis in high school and one semester in university.

12. I worked at a pet store for 7 years.

13. Due to my time in retail, I tend to memorize store layouts. My friends text me when they’re at stores, asking me where to find random things.

14. My favorite color is blue.

15. I grow a basil plant wherever I live. Always. Even in my dorm room.

16. If you couldn’t tell from #15, I love plants.

17. I’ve had 3 dogs, 4 cats, 3 rats, and multiple fish at different times in my life. If you’ve never considered having a rat, I highly recommend them – so sweet and cuddly. They can even learn tricks!

18. I always own a pair of aviator glasses and why not? They’re always in fashion.

19. I’m a great cook. Give me a recipe (or no recipe) and I can usually cook it with no practice.

20. I’ve studied many languages but I’ve forgotten them all. 🙂
