About Natalie

My name is Natalie; I am originally from Mexico and my husband from Vietnam, but we make our home in Austin, TX. When we got married, the plan was to take one big, international trip per year for six years before starting a family. Four years and absolutely no stamps in our passports later, along came Noah.
