Amanda Kelly is a new travel writer. Originally from New York, she has been able to bounce around and live in a couple new places, as well as travel to other countries a bunch, each for an extended period of time. Studying both in Italy, and Northern Ireland gave her the opportunity to visit many places in both Europe and the UK. After completing an Elementary education degree, and teaching for a year and a half she decided to pursue her dream of teaching abroad in Europe. She is now in Madrid, teaching English for this current school year. Her blog is intended to share her reality, as well as help others with similar interests to shape theirs.
