Buy shanna a coffee

Hi, I'm Shanna. I'm a writer from the US who moved to Portugal in 2018. In May 2025, I moved in France with my wife and our dog, Milo. Now, as of May 2026 we live in California.

My publication on Substack is called life: examined.

life: examined is an essay collection of ideas, thoughts, and questions about living a creative, intentional life while living with chronic illness and invisible disabilities.

I ask big questions and explore thoughtful topics about living simply, creatively, and intentionally. Join me by signing up for life: examined and buy me a coffee if you want to. Thank you!
