I fell in love with the big city pretty fast. I grew up traveling a lot (Philippines, Germany, France, Italy, etc.), so maybe that had an effect on my adventurous side and tackling new spaces and cities. I was mostly just scared of getting lost. Which happens, and occasionally still happens! But as much as my country girl soul still takes me out of the city from time to time to reflect and get out of the noise, I keep getting drawn back into the vibrancy, art, culture, and life that exists here.
