AN AMATEUR ADVENTURER
MY TRAVEL PARTNERS
MEET KATIE
BORN IN PRINCENTON NEW JERSEY, SHES LIVED IN MICHIAN, TORONTO, VIRGINIA, AND IS NOW RESIDING IN SLC, UTAH.
STUFF SHE LIKES: "CONSTANT VALIDATION, WINKING AT MYSELF WHENEVER PASSING A MIRROR COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF MAC N CHEESE, THE ENDLESS VOID THAT IS THE INTERNET, AND ANY KIND OF DOG."
IT'S SUPER IMPORTANT TO TAKE TRIPS WITH SOMEONE WHO IS A COMPATIBLE TRAVELER, AND KATIE IS THAT PERSON FOR ME. THE TWO OF US HAVE BEEN FRIENDS SINCE WE WERE FOURTEEN. SHE PLAYED A REALLY BIG PART IN ME FINDING MY PASSION FOR TRAVELING AND PHOTOGRAPHY (EVEN THOUGH MY PICTURES WILL NEVER LIVE UP TO HER'S). SHE IS THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD WHO WOULD BE WILLING TO SPONTANEOUSLY BOOK A TRIP TWO DAYS BEFORE WE'D LEAVE.
IT'S ALSO VERY IMPORTANT THAT I POINT OUT THAT A LOT OF THE AWESOME PHOTOS OF ME ON HERE ARE TAKEN BY HER.
MEET CHRISS
HE GREW UP IN BOCHUM, GERMANY AND RECENTLY MOVED TO VANCOUVER, CANADA TO STUDY JAPANESE.
​
STUFF HE LIKES: "ALMOST ALL THINGS JAPANESE, THINKING ABOUT TATTOOS I'LL NEVER GET, COWBOY BEBOP AND SAMURAI CHAMPLOO, SMASH 4, BILL MURRAY, PIZZA, THE WALKING DEAD, ONE PIECE, AND IMITATING HIS GUITAR IDOLS JAMIE HINCE AND PETER HAYES."
A MUTUAL FRIEND INTRODUCED CHRISS AND I. WE BECAME GOOD FRIENDS AND A COUPLE YEARS LATER WE STARTED DATING.
A HUGE PART OF BEING IN A LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP IS TRAVELING A LOT. WHICH HAS IT'S PROS AND CONS.
LUCKILY I HAVE A BOYFRIEND WHO ALSO HAS A HUGE INTEREST IN SEEING THE WORLD, AND HAS BEEN HELPING AND SUPPORT ME IN EVERY WAY HE CAN.
​
CHRISS' BIG GOAL IS TO SPEND SOME TIME LIVING IN JAPAN, THAT GOAL IS STARTING TO BECOME A REALITY AS HE IS SPENDING 2016-2017 STUDYING IN KYOTO.
MY NAME'S ELLEN. CURRENTLY RESIDING IN SLC, UTAH. I'M JUST AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF MY JOURNEY TO SEE THE WORLD. I'M EXCITED TO SHARE MY ADVENTURES WITH YOU.
