Just a city girl from LA moving out to a small town in the United Kingdom. Ready to travel and learn all at the same time for the next nine months. In love with adventures and food, so this is probably the place for you, too!
Late Night

Which isn't even a totally negative thing, though I definitely don't want to … Continue reading Nerves and Curves
