About
A lower-class Midwestern American liberal takes a beautiful Finnish woman for a wife. Then he discovers why poverty and visa status don't mix. After six years of marriage, the in-laws give us the chance to turn the tables. Soon, the husband will get to be the foreigner. What an ideal opportunity for an identity crisis.
Interests: photography, flute, , painting, quakerism, percussion, Guitar, cherokee culture
My expat journey
Tampere, Finland
Despite Finns' reputation for being closed off to strangers, I've never lived among kinder, more open people. The sidewalks are wide and offer access everywhere.
Wichita, USA
I was born and mostly raised here; it's where I return by default even though it depresses me more every time.
Warehouse Manager until May 2010. Artisan until I leave.
