Carrie Bradshaw: Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous. ********** I am an artist, singer, and teacher. I spent the summer abroad, attending the Festival dei Due Mondi in Spoleto Italy for the month of July, and then I traveled to Cape Verde Africa for the month of August to teach vocal music for the first CulturArte. CulturArte is a 2-week residential arts program in Praia, Santiago, where Cape Verdean and American students come together and learn about each other through music, theater, dance, and visual arts. Learn more about the program at www.crec.org/capeverde. **********Here in Connecticut I am on faculty at the Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts, where I teach vocal music, music theory, and direct the opera studies program. You can check us out at www.crec.org/academy. **********My free time? Singing, reading, going to a game (any game really), or a concert, or hanging out at home with the roommate, the cat, and the gigantic big screen tv. It's rare to find people who like games as much as I do (board, not head, weirdos), so I play on pogo... dominoes and cribbage mostly.
