About Me

I love life. I love making a million different decisions and continually transitioning into something new. Many people will get to experience a family and children and a nice safe place in their local church; but I am experiencing a different path that I am just as grateful for. This path has taken me to many different countries and cities, and allowed me to be apart of so many amazing peoples lives...well...I am humbled when I think of how lucky I have truly been.
Each day is a new adventure and somehow teaches me something new. I love music and coffee, travel and laughter, and more than anything I love watching seeing how life unfolds. I could spend every day of the rest of my life traveling and talking to new people around the world. I want to see all the ancient ruins, eat in every local cafe, wake up in a tent on sea cliffs in Ireland (oh already done that! =)
I hope that one day I will find someone who will be at the right place and the right time and we can share as many of these moments as we can, but until then I will keep laughing...i will keep saying inappropriate things at inapproproiate times...i will love people as hard as i can and do whatever i can do to bring a little happiness into complete strangers lives.
I love my family with my whole heart and could NOT ask for a more amazing mother and father and sister...and well all of them really. Cousins...everyone.
I would say that I would love to get to know you, but I am terrible at responding on here and if we haven't met face to face..well there isn't much chance of much correspondence...but who knows.
=)
