Megan Kearney

Megan Kearney has been a member since 10 January 2008 and goes by MeganK.

Currently in North America..

I am a seasoned traveler with two around-the-world trips and around 50 countries under my belt. My favorite things to do in a new city is get lost and find a supermarket to wander around. As a graphic designer I am fascinated by the packaging and cross-cultural branding on display.

Most people I know are surprised how un-adventurous I am with food, even though I did try the sheep brains.
