I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers

This Christmas is no mellow yellow For most of the past Christmas holidays, I have stayed at home despite my love of travel. I tend to like a mellow Christmas where I watch my young son come running down the stairs and dive head first onto the gifts […]
I know I am Santa Claus at home but what about the other wacky identities out there? We opened Christmas gifts a day early at home as we will be flying out to Berlin on Christmas Eve. And, it couldn’t have turned out any better than that. […]
