About Me

i'm a lover. i can find love and beauty in the good the bad and the ugly. i love adventure, whether it be in my backyard or in another country. i want to go everywhere once. my friends and family mean the world to me and i love them with every ounce of my soul. i live by my emotions and i'm way too empathetic most of the time. i am fascinated by differences. when i meet someone who thinks different than i do or totally disagrees with me, i want to find out the root of it and understand where they are coming from. i'm thriving when i learn, the classroom is my second job, but i hate tests. I choose to live. this gets me into trouble sometimes because my life has never been a straight line, it's more of a zig zag. i'm a nomad. i am spiritual. i love plants and animals and believe they have the right to live a happy life, not a cruel one. music is a lifeline. i love to bump to a beat, but unfortunately i'm no musician. i'm a hippy and a punk-rocker at the same time. i'm far from perfect, but strive to be good.
