Before moving to the United States, I knew very little about raccoons, an animal that’s native to North America. And actually, they remain slightly elusive even now, which is why I've decided to make a video all about them.

Since moving to the United States, I’ve learned a ridiculous number of facts and figures about the country. In addition to spouting them off on my award-losing YouTube channel, some of these facts seem absolutely ripe for the blog format that got Lost in the Pond started.
