Random Trivia

amylin is working artist, certified Thai Massage Therapist, world-renowned vegan chef, and round-the-world hitchhiker. She details some of her hitchhiking trips in her blog, as well as through letters and drawings.

She intends to visit every country in the world before she dies, and has been traveling at a more rapid pace, as of late. amylin is one of the rare breed of girls who is somewhat fearless when it comes to hitchhiking, and doesn't mind traveling long distances on her own, as long as eventually she will have a warm place to sleep. However, she has traveled extensively with Guaka, who was the first (and only) person to "teach" her how to hitchhike.
