    Jessica Summer Thompson San Diego native turned New Yorker

    Jessica Summer Thompson came to NYC in 2004 to complete her BA in Writing & Lit at Columbia University.  12 years later, she still has daily moments of wandering the streets, drinking in the sights, the sounds, the smells and the diversity that make up this amazing city, and she loves to do the same as she travels the world.  If she’s not in NY, she’s typically off on an adventure such as diving with tiger or great white sharks, snorkeling with saltwater crocs, exploring ancient ruins, bathing elephants or warding off monkeys in Southeast Asia.  She loves interacting with locals (both humans and animals), trying new foods, and exploring places off the beaten path, making OTPYM a perfect fit.
