About Me

Siempre existe en el mundo una persona que espera a otra, ya sea en el medio del desierto o en medio de una gran ciudad. Y cuando estas personas se cruzan y sus ojos se encuentran, todo el pasado y todo el futuro pierden completamente su importancia y solo existe aquel momento. -Paulo Coehlo
We can let the circumstances of our lives harden us so that we become increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us, and make us kinder. We always have the choice. -Dalai Lama

I've started over....I'm in a new city, starting a new life. LA!! I love a good challenge and this is going to be a big one! :-) I adore The Economist and I have a weakness for tall, dark, and handsome foreign men. I've learned to take life less seriously and just be happy. Culture and politics fascinate me. I take ridiculous amounts of pictures and I couldn't live without cheese. Oooh and I love cuddling! Happiness is in the little things money can't buy :)Myspace Backgrounds
