I just graduated and am living with my boyfriend Josh in Tucson, AZ. I'm looking for a job and relaxing and thinking about what I'm going to turn the yard into (gardening). I love to cook and see that as my other creative outlet (next to writing). I've just started road biking and have plans to do bike tours of western Canada, southwestern France, and Spain in the future! |
