Well hey there, pretty new friend!

Hi, I'm Jessi!

I'm 29 years young and living a happy, healthy life in my new home: Memphis, Tennessee.

I'm so happy that you know I'm a blogger because now we have the awkward part out of the way that I have to try to explain when I meet people in real life. You have no idea what a relief this is. Especially that I know you're {probably} a blogger too and we basically just became instant best friends. All we have to do now is follow each other on bloglovin', instagram and twitter and we can start talking about buying plane tickets to meet each other in real life.

You'd probably like to know a little more about me before we go there, right?

Okay - so I lived my life in Portland, Oregon up until I turned 27 and a half, then made a crazy amazing decision to quit my job at my dream company. From there I packed up what pieces of my life that could fit on a moving truck and drove 2,400 miles away to make a prior long distance ...prior relationship... into a short distance one.

My party trick is to recite the alphabet backwards, but I've never had to do it to prove my sobriety. I have a DSLR that I never use, my go-to karaoke song is Regulate (because I can rap, but can't sing) and my favorite workout class is hip-hop dance. I use and abuse snapchat. Twitter still doesn't make sense to me.

If we were real-life friends you'd know that I can be inappropriately silly and unapologetically awkward. These two things are also reasons why you won't see a vlog on this page, unless somebody were to pay me. Money and alcohol will always make me do something I said I never would.

I look forward to meeting you soon!
