About Jillian

By now, you should know who I am.

Jillian Lee, student at UWT, and in the Writing Studies major.
7 May 2014 - On top of St. Paul's Cathedral

The purpose of this blog is to record my musings and share them with my family and friends.

On March 25th, 2014 I left Seattle for London on a 9-hour flight, arriving on the 26th. I returned home on June 7th.

I've had a lifelong passion for writing and literature, so why not travel to the UK?
I took the name of the blog from an excerpt of The Hobbit, and the url comes from a quote from St. Augustine.

If you have any questions, email me or leave a comment!
