About Christina:

I am 42 43 (ugh), and have been smoking cigarettes since I was 16 – until 2010, when I discovered the e-cigarette.  I had found electronic cigarettes previously, but was so confused by all the conflicting information, the talks of scams and low quality products in the marketplace, along with the fact that the whole process is a little confusing, that I never ordered anything and just kept on smoking.  Then one day last year a wonderful woman (waves to Angie) came into the salon where I work part time, and she had an e-cigarette!  We talked and talked, and by the time she left, I had a new e-cigarette starter kit (Joye eGo) and some nicotine liquid on the way!  The greatest thing was discovering, after researching the eGo (AFTER purchasing it), that the eGo would have been the one I would have picked had I had the patience to wade through all of the information myself. I have smoked the occasional cigarette in social situations since then, but I am so pleased with my e-cigarettes that I haven’t bought another pack of cigarettes since my kit came in the mail.

I absolutely love vaping. For me, it takes care of all of the needs that smoking traditional cigarettes fulfilled. I have the hand to mouth, the nicotine fix and the inhale/exhale of “smoke.” I have a whole drawer full of delicious flavors that I really love the taste of (cinnamon is my favorite – I also love ginger/pear, juicy peach, green apple, french toast, cappuccino and RY4). What else could you possibly need from a cigarette? Bad breath? Ashes all over the place? Burn holes? Stinky upholstery? I don’t think so. I started out vaping 24 mg nicotine liquid, and pretty quickly cut that down to 6 mg. I don’t know why I have to go below that, so I am happily vaping my 6 mg e-liquid until someone tells me why I have to go to zero. [Update 4/2012: I have been vaping 3mg VapeJuice for a while now, and actually put zero in yesterday, and honestly, I couldn't tell a difference.]

I have converted a ton of friends to the e-cigarette, as I truly believe that the only thing stopping them is not knowing how to do it – how to make the switch.  I hope to help so many other people.  Any health benefits that vaping has over smoking are still being hotly debated, but I can tell you for sure that vaping tastes better, makes you smell better, and costs a lot less in the long run than smoking traditional (analog for us VapeGeeks) cigarettes.  I also no longer have an oily film over everything inside my car. And my husband asks me to vape in his truck because it smells so good. Who’da thunk it?? All you need are the right tools and the instructions to make the switch, and I really want to help you do that!
