Post on Blog

Hi! My name is Erin and I’m so glad you decided to stop by! I decided to start this blog because I really love history and have had the opportunity to travel and see several historic places. I really love researching the history of the places I’ve been and sharing that information with others. You probably came to this page to find out more about me, so here’s a little info: I was born in Alaska and have lived in six other states in the US: Florida, Nevada, Utah, Virginia, Oklahoma, and Oregon. I also spent 13 months living in Malaysia, which was pretty fantastic. I highly recommend living in a foreign country if you get the opportunity. Or you could just make your own opportunity, which is even better! I have a degree in Operations Management from Oregon Institute of Technology and work as a behavioral therapist with autistic kids. My job involves using positive reinforcement to help these special individuals develop functional skills, such as communication and basic life skills. I actually love what I do. The kids are great and the people I work with are pretty awesome. It can be challenging at times, but it’s so worth it to see these kids progress. As for travel, I travel as much as I can. Now that I’m back to living in the US and having a normal job, I travel part-time, which equates to a handful of trips a year. I’ve been to 14 countries so far and 21 states. I love introducing people to new countries and helping them learn about different cultures around the world.
