Her Story

I grew up in here in Iowa. I have always thought I would travel and never live in the states. After high school I attended Creighton University where I majored in Economics and International studies.  Through a program at Creighton I had the opportunity to study abroad. After spending a year in Edinburg Scotland and traveling throughout Europe I knew traveling was for me! After graduation I decided to seek a career in Japan. I quickly was offered a teaching position in Kobe, Japan so I packed up and moved abroad.  One year turned into seven years, and in 2011 I moved back to the US.  I ran into Jon shortly after moving back.  Having met him years ago made our encounter much more comfortable. Oddly enough I kept running into him at the gym, which if you know either of us is hard to believe, through extensive persuasion I finally gave in and we went on our first date.  The rest as they say is history.
