I'm flighty when it comes to places. I haven't stayed in a lease for a whole year since 2011. I was a digital nomad for three years, and I was only in Seattle for 9 months before coming here. Everyone thinks that I'll leave.

I've had such an easy time meeting people here in Austin, it astounds me! In four weeks I've made more friends than I did in nine months living in Seattle. I think it's because of three things: 1. The people here are just way

I've been making many brand-new friends here in Austin. Yay! Here's the deal. Once I get to know you, I let loose and I'm really quirky and goofy and wonderful. But before then, I get a bit scared and clam up. I looked up

The older I get, the more I'm learning that I can just trust the way I feel. I can't find the quote, but I remember Pieter Levels saying that when he gets anxious around people, it's not his fault for being 'anxious and
