I’ve lived in 7 cities, 5 states, and 2 countries in 2 hemispheres in the last 10 years, and I’ve become something of an expert at finding the good in any location. If I can move from New York City back to Small Town, Missouri and find beauty, edge, groove, and inspiration here, you can find the same, wherever you call home.
I’m exploring, after ten years away, the same town I was born in, and I find out something new every single day. I believe in being adventurous, taking chances, appreciating what you have, and looking closer at what’s right before your eyes. And as you read this site, I hope you begin to believe, too.

You’re a sweetheart, my dear. How are you? If you’ll be in town this weekend, give me a call!

Hey,
My friend Dolly is biking accross the country and will be in Farmington by late next week. I’m planning to send her a care package to the Farmington post office and thought it would be cool to have a gift certificate with a local restaurant – she’s been biking and eating who knows what for camp food – do you have any suggestions for a nice/good restaurant where she can get a great meal? she tends to like the healthy aspect of food…
I stumbled upon your blog while trying to find out more about the place… hope you don’t mind my contacting you for input!
Thanks!

Seriously? We should be foodie friends. I miss NYC food!

Oh wow. I just read your “I miss New York” post. I could have written every word in it! I’m here in London, where I’ve been living now for 5 years, and it’s a great and wonderful city but I still miss my beloved New York City every single day. I know that deep aching longing and loneliness for a place or a time in your life when and where everything seemed so possible and you seemed to be at the centre of everything. Even having no money for the first 4 years didn’t matter! I don’t know what I miss – the place, the people, what it represented or who I was when I lived there – but that city gets down deep into your bones and won’t let go. Thanks for that beautiful post – it has moved me and comforted me to know that I’m not alone with this endless homesickness for something or sometime I can’t get back to.
