About Me

Life has played it's cards, but I suppose that's the beauty of it. It's all the stuff in between that I love the most. The moments, the simple stuff. There's pretty much nothing I have to complain about. I have an amazing family - a beautiful home filled with sacred souls that I couldn't love more, and friends that come far and few between. I love, I believe, I cry, I feel, I work, I laugh - and I still believe. Walking barefoot in fresh grass, that makes me smile. That chill that you get when you experience something for the first time, hmm, I love the spin. Me - god, who knows - every day, I think I know and a moment later I'm reminded that I'm still figuring it out. It doesn't take a lot for me to be happy... I just have to remind myself from time to time.

My Interests

Travelling/exploring - road trips - driving alone in my car, in the middle of nowhere, with all the windows down and music spinning around me - the desert - the ocean - the sound of crickets on a hot summer night - the smell of the air just after it rains - waterfalls - windchimes - new lands - the smell of the air and the forest when you first open your tent in the morning and take a deep breath - books - horses - photography - reading - music - history - dreaming - wine - cheese - sushi - gardening - flipflops - sarongs - language - words - but mostly...MY FRIENDS & FAMILY

I'd like to meet:

It's simple really - real and true and honest people - people that challenge me beyond my boundaries and ask me to see that which lies beyond my reality - lessons - life experience - the human emotion - laughter and a sense of humor - adventure - humility - and everything that lies in between.
