I love travel—I’ve always been curious about cultures outside of the one in which I was born, and there are always new things to see and experience (and eat!). Every new destination gets its own printed photo book—it’s a tradition I started with my first big international trip (China in 2002). Since then, I’ve visited St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Novgorod in Russia; Paris and outlying areas of France; Buenos Aires and Colonia del Sacramento in Argentina and Uruguay, respectively; London; and Amsterdam and Haarlem in the Netherlands, along with Brussels, Belgium.

I also recently embarked on my first fully solo journey, spending two weeks in Prague with side trips to Kutná Hora (home of the famous bone church) and Vienna. My most recent adventure doesn’t yet have its own book.
