Growing up, I felt like a ball that was being thrown around the world. My parents divorced when I was four, and my mom and I moved to Japan. Then we moved to the United States, then Sweden. My family is very spread out. My upbringing was being on airplanes and flying long distances. When I started touring, it was very familiar to me.
