Thank you!
A little over a year ago, I quit my job, gave up my apartment, packed my life into a hiking pack and set off on a year-long adventure to research pole dancing around the world. What a crazy, intense year it has been! Thank you everyone for all your tips, emails, comments and input within and outside … Continue reading

London
Oh London, my newly-adopted-yet-short-lived-temporary-home. I love you to bits, but you are waay too expensive for this frugal traveler! I made London my base in September as I traveled Europe because here I had a place and close friends to come “home” to. Much like New York, London is a gargantuan city with lots to offer … Continue reading
Talking about pole
