dizzy life

"Krissy your life makes me dizzy." Probably my favorite quote from the string of recent emails I've received in response to my latest life changes. As of October 7 I no longer work for Penguin Brands/Nathan. November 5 I will start a new job in a new location! I'm moving to Bend Oregon and looking forward to working with the Conservation Alliance. I am employee #2 and am super excited for all I have to learn and feel I come with some experience to help continue the growth this amazing non-profit is experiencing.

Moving to Bend is also an exciting step. A town well-known for avid outdoors people, beautiful terrain and a comfortable town that has experienced a ton of growth in recent years. There is a great ultrarunning community, climbing community, cycling... and endless opportunites of places to explore. It is about a 6 hour drive from Seattle, and there is an airport in Redmond to make travel easy. (consider visiting!!!) My hope is to move into a place of my own, hopefully buying this fall/early winter. A key selling point is room for guests.

All positive, but moving away from Seattle, the place I've lived (although haven't really been much) the last 10+ years is tough. There are great friends and family close by; a support network that has always been amazing for me. I will miss having these loved ones close.

So as life continues to twist and turn and take me in new fun directions I look forward to keeping in touch and sharing in all that keeps you moving and shaking!
