Curious by
nature.
Tea. Architecture. Long walks in unfamiliar cities.
I grew up between New York and New Jersey, but I never really felt like I was from anywhere in particular. Home was wherever I was curious about something.
That curiosity led me to tea — not the bag kind, the kind where someone sits across from you and explains why this leaf tastes different than the one picked a week later from the same mountain.
And tea led me to travel. Not the kind with itineraries and landmarks — the kind where you walk until you find something interesting, sit down, and see what happens.
Most of the best things in my life started that way — a wrong turn, a stranger's recommendation, a door I almost didn't walk through.
