I was born in Ashland, Oregon. In the heart of the Rogue Valley, it is home of the hippies, the Shakespeare Festival, and Southern Oregon University. It is also home to Lithia Park, where you can drink disgusting mineral water from the drinking fountains, and feed millions of ducks (well, not legally, but we do…

Even though I lived in Portland for a long time, I hardly ever went to the zoo there. Here in Seattle, I’ve already been there three times! Apparently it’s my sister’s “go-to” spot, and it’s good practice for photography. Plus, you can get a zoo membership here for 50 bucks and go as many times…
