Falling from moving vehicles since 2006

About Me

I am an accident-prone wanderer.I wander physically as I walk, but not often. I usually refer to that as exploring. Maybe I'm more of an explorer. I am exploring this thing called life. Always trying new things, and somehow managing to stay safe through all those new endeavors.It's truly surprising, given how accident prone I am. I don't get hurt doing the really risky stuff--I get hurt doing the mundane, or at least routine. I've fallen off a van at 35 MPH in South Africa. I went over the handlebars of a bike while going really slowly when I hit a small rock (maybe an inch high, if that). My sunglasses gave me a scar and 7 stitches in my nose.I love sharing what is going on in life. I write a lot (see my blog or my music page). I make movies. I take pictures.I am creative because I believe in a Creator who is writing my story in the most dramatic of fashions. His name is Jesus.

My Interests

Julie. music. photography. writing. theology. Julie. incomplete sentences.
