About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Fairy dust

I have friends from many different walks of life. I get a kick out of all sorts of ridiculous situations and love to laugh my ass off. I also can be quite introspective. I'm half Italian and the other half is Cherokee and Scottish. I love to travel and love the fact that life always has a surprise around every bend. I enjoy reading both crappy rags and informative/interesting books, such as books on history, astrology, forest plants....the range is endless. I have a lot of books and have trouble getting rid of them sometimes. I enjoy stability, but change and new situations excite me. I've lived in Winter Park, Colorado for the last 8 years but I finally moved to New Orleans, my spiritual home. I've found that living here is very different from just visiting here. I've seen things that are heartbreaking and I've seen things that have lifted me up and filled me with joy. New Orleans is like that and sometimes you have to embrace her for what she is. I have been known to start new chapters of my life with nothing but the clothes on my back and a few sentimental things I will always have. As far as music goes, I enjoy most any world music, such as african,native, celtic, middle-eastern and trance.I also like bluegrass and have a redneck bent when it comes to that. I enjoy a bit of the goth subculture but also like normalcy. I like fine things and also like to slum it once in a while. I love to hang out in the Quarter and meet new people and that does not mean Bourbon street unless it's Lafitte's. I dig all things piratey. I usually prefer someplace really small and quirky for a hangout, but crowds by no means ever bother me, as I think people watching is one of the best things you can do. I love to walk for miles and miles with no game plan, both in the City and the forest and spend my time in both. I also love Harleys. I believe in magic and the intelligence and beauty of the Divine. UPDATE: After living in New Orleans for about half a year, I finally gave up on the whole romantic notion and woke up to the realization that it was just a dream. I got out (escaped) with my life intact, but my with heart broken by the City that care forgot. Time to heal and to learn. These days I spend my time playing my native flute and finding peace in my surroundings. And yeah...I'll probably go back to New Orleans at least to visit.

My Interests

Playing my flute and Didgeridoo, Just started drumming as well ( I plan on being a triple threat!) hiking, camping, gathering things that catch my eye in the forest, writing songs/music/poems. Traveling as much as possible and meeting cool, new people. Living, Loving, Laughing and Creating. Breaking bread with good friends and laughing around a bonfire (yeah, I'm a savage!)

I'd like to meet:

People with a strong sense of self, fellow Earth lovers, and those who are creative and can appreciate the humor and fineness in any given situation. Musicians, artists, writers,photographers, animal lovers and circus clowns are also always welcome.
