Very random, very messy, hotel & Airbnb horror stories with Amber. The point was to chit chat about how best to book vacation accommodations but it ended up being a story time instead —no surprise.

Ever feel a little different or just out of place? Maybe a little embarrassed of who you are? I sure as hell have —but don’t worry, those were my younger years!
