Hi. I’m Shilo.

I’m a thirty-one year old American expat currently living in the city of Brisbane on the east coast of Australia.

I was born in Poulsbo Washington, an incredibly quaint Scandinavian fishing village on the Puget Sound where people still use Norwegian words as slang.
After growing up in and around Seattle, I moved my act to Brooklyn. I consider New York City home.

In September 2009, I put on a poofy white dress and took the subway to Central Park where I married a talented, super foxy and very private man who will henceforth be known to this blog as The Mister.
He’s Australian and no, I don’t just love him for his accent. He’s also got a nice tush.

The Mister and I moved to Australia in November 2009. For now, we live in Brisbane but we will likely move in the nearish future. We have no idea where to, but we’re working on figuring that out. With three passports between us, we’ve got quite a few options.

I’m very interested in contemporary art, books, sewing, spaces, objects, atmosphere, bicycles and checking out strange local birds.

I am a fairly solid representation of my astrological sign Capricorn, the wet blanket of the zodiac.
I’m loud-mouthed, opinionated and really friendly.

I would love to hear from you. Email shilo at yikesmachine dot com
