I am an expatriate.

I am American, and I am now living in China. I am currently in Karamay.

About me

During the summer of 2006 my wife and I found ourselves in a small airport in Xinjiang, China holding all our belongings and not a clue as to what we were doing. We were coming to teach, we knew that much, but where the heck were we?

After years of traveling around Xinjiang I am now convinced it is one of the most underrated and beautiful parts of China that most people neglect to notice. It's also one of the most misunderstood. I decided to begin to write about the area in hopes that I could shed light on Xinjiang's people, places, and incredible culture.

I can speak English, Spanish, and Mandarin

My birthday is on 17 February, I was born in 1983

Interests

My blog 

Xinjiang: Far West China

I currently reside in and blog about Xinjiang, a province in the far north western corner of China. It's a unique place that combines many different cultures, foods, and travel destinations which is unfortunately not very well know. It's not well know, but it's absolutely beautiful!
