I'm a half Puerto Rican/half African-American expat, born in New York and raised in Los Angeles, who started off travelling through 17 countries in Europe before halting for 8 long years in Germany. I'm finally getting this show back on the road for good after making short trips to Thailand, Indonesia, Tunisia, across Europe and the U.S. inbetween. My wave-riding German husband and I are leaving Europe to study Spanish and backpack through South America with the long-term intention of avoiding a return to cubicle life and following the sunniest of seasons across the globe (apart from the annual Christmas visits to our German family combined with snowboarding in the Alps).
