About Me

So I just moved down to South Florida with my labrador, Una, from the Southwest. We love it here! Una's two favorite activities, ball catching and digging, are somehow even more exciting with salty, rhythmic waves of ocean in the background. I, on the other hand, have befriended super kind, cool, fashionable Boriquas! It must be the change of scene 'cause I've started wearing a little makeup and flashing some bling these days! Oooooch!! Now I need to start meeting more people to hang out with! Who wants to show me around this place!? ;-)About me.....I am a Global Nomad...I've lived in countries from South America to Asia--I love all cultures, including their music, their arts, their languages, and even, their idiosyncrasies. I work in women's health care, am starting to get into yoga, dabble in mysticism, love playing all sorts of sports and watching baseball/futbol en la tele.... In general, I make sure there is plenty of joy, laughter, and down and dirty fun to make life just a little more manageable.So, come, let me pour you a glass of Castillo de Molina (Chilean red wine) y vamos a placticar un rato!

thoughts

Eccentric treehugger, soon-to-be baby catcher, and idealist dreamer of saving the world.  But, as Lao-tzu says, Do you want to improve the world? I don't think it can be done. The world is sacre...
