Welcome! My name is Shachi and I live in New York City. The short story behind this blog is that I’m want to live my life meeting interesting people, learning about their stories (and/or coming away with a good one of my own), and writing them all down. I decided one day to go out and try to meet people who are different than the ones I normally interact with and learn a little bit about them. I hope you enjoy reading their stories as much as I enjoy collecting them. Thanks for reading!

p.s. If you’d like to read the long version of this story, please check out The Origin Story. 🙂
