Hello, people around the world! My name is Abby. I'm a journalist with a print and online newspaper in Jefferson County, called the Leader. I write about small towns and the lovely people who make them special. I come from St. Louis, Missouri USA (aka the Gateway to the West. Pioneers in the 1800s started their journey to the wild unknown western United States in STL). I love learning interesting things about different cultures, so please feel free to share some fun facts about yourself, where you're from, what kinds of food you eat, what you get up to in your free time, etc. As for me, I love reading and writing, swimming to stay fit, and traveling when I have a little extra money in my pocket. My favorite destinations have been Cologne, Germany, Bologna, Italy, and Ketchikan, Alaska. Feel free to share with me whatever you see fit! Best wishes from the midwest United States!
