Maylin and Chela

Maylin Tu (west coast twin) lives in Los Angeles, California. She enjoys breakfast biscuits from Neal's Deli, walking down Franklin Street and biking everywhere instead of driving. She's currently binging "Married at First Sight" on Netflix (no spoilers, please).

Chela Tu (east coast twin) hails from White Cross, North Carolina. She enjoys mullet roe season at Tom Robinson's Seafood, sampling new ciders at Botanist & Barrel and cuddling her cat, Tawnie Kitty. She's currently obsessed with the "Da Hero" sandwich from Deli Edison. Ask her where she thrifted her latest outfit!
