About Me

Hi.

Facts about me

• Name: Jessica Stafford
• Occupation: Slacker and Wanderer
• Education: BFA, ie, I went to art school
• Talents: Not art
• Spirit Animal: Tiger. Meow.

If you're on this page, you either already know me, or you're here by accident. I've created this blog to keep my travels together in one place because I tend to not do that. And the next few years will either be really crazy or pretty boring. On the chance that they're really crazy, I want to have a place to put all my past adventures. That's where this site comes in.

I've had a lot of people ask me how I'm able to travel, monetarily. I might tell them I write dirty books or do freelance design or something. But the truth is, it's a sad story that I don't always like to get into. Some people say I'm lucky, but that's a matter of perspective.

What I've learned is to appreciate what I have; try to see other people's perspectives before judging what they do; if I'm not getting done what I want to, if I'm not doing what I want to do, that means I need to re-evaluate my priorities. A lot of problems can be solved if we take a moment to take a step back and view it from a different angle.

I invite you to do the same. Live vicariously through my adventures or use it as inspiration for your own. Either way, you're the one who holds the pen to your own story. So. What are you going to write?
