During her years in San Miguel, Julie became intimately acquainted with the regions multicultural community, lively local art scene, and vivid history. In the meantime, she supported her nomadic lifestyle by working as a freelance writer, translator, artist, and graphic designer for various companies in Mexico and the United States. Today, Julie lives in Brooklyn with her husband, Arturo, her son, Mariano, and her chihuahua, Tequila. She spends a good deal of her free time trying to replicate traditional Mexican recipes in her tiny urban kitchen. She is also the author of Moon Mexico City, Moon Living Abroad in Mexico, and Moon MapGuide New York City.
