How did you get here?
I’m a Mainah through and through. My mum’s from Wells, my dad is from Saco, so I spent a lot of time kicking it in southern Maine. I went to college in Vermont, which surprisingly isn’t that different from Maine and once I returned home I packed my bags and headed for the big city – Portland. I’ve been making an arse of myself all around this town ever since.
