About Me
- kloeamongtheturks
- As you can see, I'm a bit of a Western Girl. Love the desert. Into animals. Big hair, small clothes. I go to the gym religiously. Artist, feminist, teacher, mama. From August 2006 to July 2007 I lived and worked in Turkey. So check the archives if you want to know what it's like there. Now I'm back in the fastlane in SoCal. Sending you all kisses...
