ABOUT
Kristin Bair O'Keeffe
Shanghai, China
I live in Shanghai, China, with my Irishhusband and Vietnamese daughter.
Throughout the past four years, I've
crisscrossed the globe more times than
I can count, and while doing so, have
discovered what a kooky, miraculous,
and lovely place our world is. My experiences
enlighten me, inspire me, and crack me up.

So many books have changed the way I look at the world! The one that first came to mind today is "The World Without Us" by Alan Weisman. In his nonfiction book, he imagines that people have somehow been removed from the earth, leaving buildings to fall and bridges to drop. The image of a pile of plastic garbage the size of Texas in the middle of the ocean is unforgettable! Now I recycle EVERYTHING!
