What is your favorite city?

I lived in Dublin, Ireland for several months, so it holds a special place in my heart. It has a unique magic and charm. It was also the first place I lived car-free and I never wanted to go back!

What do you do to relax?

The mountains are calling and I must go! A cozy cabin in the mountains and a couple long hikes always brings me peace and perspective.
