About Me

  • About Me: I met Lee two Octobers ago. We got married the next October. Now I might have a baby this October! I live in Arequipa, Peru. I'm only 23 and I'm new at this being away from family and being married and stuff, although it's going really well. But it makes it interesting being in another country. So now that I'm prego, this blog is about what it's like to be an American having a baby away from home where everyone speaks Spanish.

More About Me

  • Nationality: American!
  • Religion: "Repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand"
  • Interests: Life is so full of colors and people and textures and scents and breezes. I love to imagine how God looks down on all of it and sees it at one time, swaying like a tree in autumn. I love to meet the people and breathe the same air as they do and take their pictures and save them in my memory. I want to run all over the planet and take it all in while I can.
