this is my story. The story of a small town girl with big-time dreams and a deadly (contagious) case of Wanderlust. I'm seeking life's most important question: what I want to do with the rest of my life and how to get there, while chasing samurai and wearing French berets, all the while differentiating between foreigner, gaijin, and Étranger...

My name is Julianne, but please do not call me that. Instead call by one of my nicknames according to countries. In America, people call me Julie or Jules. While the Japanese pronounce it like Jurie or Judy. In France, friends and family call my Julie, but it is pronounced very elegantly. (If you are an English speaker, don't even try it.) I'm a Yo-yo, which oddly enough is not a crazy person. Instead a Yo-yo is the name of Rotary Youth Exchange Student that has gone on exchange TWICE. Maybe I am a little bit crazy.
