I heart Terra Plana..but, where are my boots TP?

A Shoe Designer’s story.. Not just a Freelancer but an Entrepreneur

It was always fun to have great perks like travel to Europe or Asia at the company’s expense, company parties where people would behave inappropriately, drama at the office, long lunches, etc. I will have to admit it was the life.
