Introduction Text Ahoy! I'm Colleen, from Chicago. I like to travel, write, make stuff, and vacuum (I know - weirdsville). I love music, tattoos, the outdoors, and typewriters. There's a lot of other stuff about life that makes me thrilled to be alive, but I have limited space here. Mostly, I'm grateful for the ever-present opportunity to mold myself into who I want to be.
