who, me?
I'm Freddie, a so-called Third Culture Kid, currently living in London .
In my 30-odd years, I've called six countries my home (including the US, the UK, Burundi and Germany), and have travelled to over fifty. I grew up bilingually, speaking English and German. My friends describe my accent as "confused international school kid", which yeah...
When I'm not geeking out over grammar and punctuation (sexy stuff, I know), you'll either find me at the nearest pizza joint or en route to the airport . Because what could be better than pizza and adventure?
Some other things I love: the '80s, web design, corny horror films, rollercoasters, puppies, peanut butter, coffee, and sneakers .
