My name is Christina…
I’m a 20-something year old wannabe photography, freelance writer-bookkeeper-preschool teacher-dog wrangler. I split my days up amongst one of my numerous jobs (I have five, at the moment). I work to travel and travel to work. It’s a win-win.
I live in Southeast Alaska, where it rains more often than you would think. I love to travel and would love to devote an entire year to traveling. But until then, these short snippets will have to do.
I love a good cup of coffee, and great music. I get annoyed with people who think they know it all, which might explain my inability to get along with most people. But really! I would like to be your friend and if you can get past my crazy outer shell -my ability to make new words and say random things -then you might make friends with the {semi} sweet inside!
I write to remember the small, unimportant details of life that tomorrow -won’t be remembered. The things that add up to make the story complete. The forgotten details: the smiles of strangers, details in flowers, and overlooked cracks in the sidewalk. While no one finds these things interesting -they add color to my life, my story…and if there is one thing I love, it’s color.
I am not perfect, and never will be. But that won’t stop me from striving to reach perfection that can only be found in Jesus. Overall, I am thankful for the never-failing presence of God, His ‘Never stopping, Never giving up, Unbreaking, Always and Forever -love’ and the freedom He has given me in the gift of salvation.
This is my perspective of my journey through this crazy and complicated, confusing and amazing, wonderfully exciting thing they call life.
Welcome aboard!
I am much like you and I am not much like you. I’m retired now but struggled daily at my customer service job, also enjoyed every day. I live in Ohio, the Football Hall of Fame city. I have been a photographer (in my mind) since I was a kid. I don’t travel as you do, mostly only within a few joining states. When I do travel I am always looking for something to photograph. I can’t remember names and often use the phrase ‘I can see her/his face’. I am good at math and writing. Lately I have wanted to start writing children’s books and incorporate some of my photography. In 2015 one of my goals is to start producing fine art photography. I’ve done some reading and believe I will need to learn to shoot RAW and use software.
