About Me


I’m Tanya, a passionate and energetic 30 something, determined to enjoy life, see as much as possible along the way, and one day fulfill my lifelong dream to become a successful writer.

I lived in London for two years from 2012 until January of 2014, and in that time managed to travel and see so much of the world I’ve never seen – over 20 countries! Before and after London, I spent many years living in the New York City area. As of July 2015, I’m experiencing a new adventure – life in the South – my husband Jim and I (and our dog Barley) moved to Asheville, North Carolina and as of November 2016, now live in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Before all of that, my roots were set in small town America, where I spent the first 23 years of my life living, going to school, and working in the state of Pennsylvania (hence the abbreviation “PA” in the website domain name).
