Introduction.

Hello Steemit,

My name is Ashley I hail from Portland Oregon, USA. I have recently repatriated to the states after living in Shanghai , China for the past 4 years. Currently I'm living with my husband in Oklahoma city while we care take for his mother before and after her second knee surgery. You can see us three along with my sister in law In the photo next to me.

I've got years of blogging material piled up inside me and I'm so happy to have found a medium in which to post them.
That being said I have posted a few blogs before creating this #introduceyouself post. I was just so excited about creating a new hairstyle after six years of the same on. Documenting the process was really important to me because I was afraid I would miss the dread locks I brushed out. Future post will be a bit different perhaps more like my most recent post about spiritually which will be what drives all my posting.

All the post I make will cover personal interest topics , research and findings.

My current interests include :
learning maths , Linguistics , healing arts , body building , yoga, Crochet, family planning ,

I will also post my photography, travel stories, poetry, and Journal entries from my trips to European countries, Chinese provinces , Tokyo Japan, and nature.

Any of course everything else that I get my hands on.

In the past I have studied : Capoeria Angola Palmares from the age of two. , Mandarin Chinese for the past four years, Japanese since kindergarten, two years of ASL in University, Art ,Traditional Chinese medicine for a six month long internship.

While living in China I taught English in Kindergartens. Teaching children has significantly changed me for the better.

Looking forward to sharing all my stories with the Steemit community.

Ashley
