Welcome to Pitching a Tent without Poles

Apr 26, 2023

Hi, I’m Alissa.

I’m an expat with 4 young kids. Without family nearby to tell me what I should & shouldn’t be doing, I’ve looked to dead people who can help me figure out how to save the next generation & myself: Sarah Bernhardt killed a pet alligator feeding it milk & champagne. There are lessons everywhere, if we’re willing to look.
