About Me


____________________________________________________________ _
Well, uh-uh baby I ain't got no plan
We'll float on, maybe would you understand?
Let's grow our hair long. My name means worthy of love, and I'm a constant work in progress. I'm dreadfully idealistic and born to be in love. I like when the seasons change, and I like roots.
And we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Les temps sont durs pour les rêveurs.

My Interests

Nature, the exchange of knowledge, long conversations, looking to the sky!, braids, meadows, politics (and philosophy), imagination running wildly free, giggling, trail mix, art, singing ultra loud, cameras, peace (love not war!), naps, wine all night long, folklore/mythology, suuuper late nights, flowers & counter cultures, feminism (and other ism's), higher education, tea, smiles, sweaters and blankets and gloomy weather.

I'd like to meet:

&

Those who make me remember why I love life, who will expand my horizons, who I can see kissing tiny flowers, and who are talkin' world war III blues.
Someone who gets those references.
Someone who will keep me wondering/wandering.
And also go to Iceland with me.
