I'm smarter than the average bear.

About Me

Passionate. Kind. Life should be truly lived. I want not just to see the world, but to feel it. Grace, dignity, loyalty, compassion. Live in a way that not only allows you to blossom, but encourages those around you to bloom as well. To get me naked you have to make me laugh. Show me the world through your eyes.I have been blessed throughout my life with so many opportunities to travel and live abroad and I believe each of these experiences have made me the person I am. I hope my list continues to grow and grow over the years. Here goes as of now...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

"It has been said that love is blind, but true friendship is clairvoyant." I want to explore my path among those with true heart and a fire for life. Creative. Charismatic. Respect for all people and knowledge that you can always learn and develop. Live in your OWN shoes, but be curious about how others' might fit. Loyalty and honesty are the only foundations. I want a life bubbling with friends that will never stop making me belly laugh. Friends that makes me feel beautiful.
