ABOUT ME
Hello, hello! Welcome to Courtney in London. I'm an American expat living in London and recently celebrated my 1 year anniversary of living abroad. In honor of surviving 365 days of living outside of my own country, I figured it was finally time to document my life in the UK.
​
It hasn't all been rainbows and butterflies, but moving across the planet has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. My life is full of adventure, fun, and I learn something new every single day. I could not feel more blessed.
​
A little about me: I work in tech and that's what brought me to London. I love to travel, dance, ski, and be anywhere there is water. My go-to drink is sauvingon blanc and my favorite food is anything Mexican. I am still on the hunt for a SLIGHTLY edible taco this side of the Atlantic (I had one in Dublin where they horrifyingly served it with ketchup!) but after a year I've conceded that it's just not going to happen.
A note before you read on: these stories are 95% real, 5% fiction. It's up to you to figure out which is which. I hope this writing entertains you, makes you giggle, or even gives you a full belly laugh at my expense.
Now enough chatting-I'd recommend you click on the Preface under "Let's Read" and see where we go from there.
​
Cheers,
Courtney xx
