Hello fellow Shiners! I'm 24 year old American, and I live and work in Kabul, Afghanistan with my husband. I run a coffee shop and also do some massage therapy- primarily on Afghan ladies. Years of wearing burkas tends to do a nasty number on your back and shoulders. My husband and I have been married for 2 1/2 years, and hope to start a family in the next year or so. I love observing culture, traveling, cooking, and fashion. I'll admit that the reason I started observing this website was purely for the sake of fashion. I've been living here for 10 months and wanted to know what's come around in fashion since I left home. I look forward to blogging about perspectives of women on this side of the world, and some of the things we can learn from them.
