This week marked a very significant milestone in my life. 20 years ago, on September 29, 1999 I stepped foot in Mongolia for the very first time. I don’t think I will ever forget that day as a seven-year-old… the drive from the airport to my new home in the middle of the capital city of Ulaan ...

Can You Have a Sense of Style… and Modesty?
I’ve always been one to appreciate style. Maybe not style in the sense of what is “in,” but a particular sense of what I thought was beautiful.
