My Place

If I'm asked what's the single, most adventurous thing you've ever done in your life, it's packing up and coming to New York City without a plan.

I had a privileged, middle-class existence in the Philippines and it was all very predictable until three years ago.  One trauma was enough to wake me up and do something with my life.  I wasn't happy in Manila anymore.

I'm a city girl and moving to New York was the next logical step to me.  I needed to find my place under the sun and looking for it is a never-ending process apparently.  Just living here from day to day is a challenge.
