DANCE MAGIC DANCE!!!!!

It's Justyn. I am so stoked to have our blog up, so we can start journaling our daily shenanigans in Shanghai while passing them on to all of our friends! My intention with this blog is to be as candid as possible, if I offend any of my readers- please know that it is nothing personal, it's just my life in truth. God help me, ha!
Let me start by telling you know how I got to this place in my life;
I was in the skateboard/snowboard industry for 13 years, and while it was A LOT of fun for so many years- the last 2 have been challenging for me, as I struggled to find any sort of fulfillment in my daily work routine. Perhaps this is just a cliche thing women do as we enter our 30's, or maybe it was the fact that I got sober a few years ago- and the industry is pretty much a big, alcohol/drug induced party 80% of the time. With that said, I felt like I was battling with "LA/party scene", or "sober/yogi" lifestyle. With as much fun as I was having, living the "LA/party scene" lifestyle,  I was getting exhausted and decided to throw in the towel last October.  It was time to head South- Destination "Yoga instructor". I left my career to explore this "Other side of life", and it has been nothing short of amazing. I did my yoga teacher training in November, traveled north in December, spent some self destructive time up in LA in January, (rekindling an old romance with an egotistical, professional party boy, who thought I could save him->cringe<Whom I still believe has a great heart with hidden potential->cringe<), ending up moving east, to China, in February. And here I am! My best friend Sunny lives here, time to meet her......
