I Love my job, even though it is not at all what I excepted to be doing after graduating college. I graduated top of my journalism class April of 2010 and started freelancing a few weeks later, but I didn't like it. I wanted to write books and travel the world. Two years later, I proudly finished writing my first book in Hyde Park, London. Some of it was written in North Africa, some in Europe, some in Asia, and some even in Australia while sightseeing Sidney.
