I was born in north Texas and now live in north Texas. I went to college in Austin, which is further to the south. I've also spent significant amounts of living time in Louisiana, where my father's family is from, and in Houston, where my husband was raised. Even though I've mostly lived within a fairly small area, I've traveled very widely, both in the United States and other parts of the world. Have visited 22 different countries at last count and hope to visit many more before I die. I adore Austria and Holland!
