About Christine

I travel, I write, I take photos.

Californian by birth, traveler at heart. I’ve been obsessed with words since I realized that having a book meant I’d never be lonely and addicted to travel since my parents stuck me on a plane by myself at 6. I’m a full-fledged Francophile, aspiring street art photographer and semi-professional beach bum.

I’ve always wanted to be a writer, but growing up, I couldn’t decide what exactly I wanted to write: children’s books, mystery novels, investigative articles, fashion commentary, press releases? I loved working in high-tech public relations in Silicon Valley and marketing for a hip Scandinavian furniture gallery in Melbourne, but I realized I’m happiest when I’m not tied to a desk from 9-5.

My life goals include rollerblading a marathon, skydiving over the Great Barrier Reef, and learning a third (and maybe a fourth) language. I love sunshine, yoga and real butter. I believe in daring to live the life you dream of living, and so I quit my job to blog, soak up the sun and parler Français on the French Riviera. Then I moved to Australia and fell head over heels in love with hipster Melbourne. And then I booked a one-way ticket to Bali to surf and do sun salutations. And now, I’m never quite sure what’s next.

That’s me. C’est Christine!
