driving through the desert at night with the full moon for company; Spain; spaghetti carbonara in Rome or off the turnpike in Jersey; sunlight on my skin, tank tops and flip flops; sequins, soccer; Hawaii; warm humid air so thick you drink it; the golden path on the ocean when the sun is sinking; fireworks; Kevin playing the guitar for me, Brazilians who look into my eyes like they're touching my soul
I live to travel and eat and read and make art. I'm subhuman before coffee in the morning. I can't sing, I've got rhythm but no moves. I'm straightforward to the point of brutal but either you love me for it or you don't. I'm worth it if you do.
My favorite time of day is lunch.
One of my favorite sites for inspiration is art-e-zine: http://www.art-e-zine.co.uk
I'd like to meet:
No one, really. It's hard enough to keep up with the people I already know and like.

"The point is to create. The point is to express yourself, even if it's only to yourself, and learn from it and explore those inner places and parts that are uncharted emotional territories... To have the courage to look inward and see what's below the surface, to the heart of who we really are...Creativity can help us make peace with ourselves as well as fuel our demons, which I suppose is one of the many things that makes the process so exciting and important."--Dave Navarro

"Intellectual freedom depends on material things. Poetry depends upon intellectual freedom, and women have always been poor, not for two hundred years, but from the beginning of time ... That is why I have laid so much stress on money and a room of one’s own."
-Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own, 1929
