About Me

Sometimes life is like a scenic drive in the country, nice & easy. Other times its like a low budget play in choas where you have to play multiple characters all at once and do it in a way that its not revealed that they are all in fact you.I'm complex yet really down to earth. I am sometimes a little shy but usually gregarious. I am playful and sweet yet stubborn & serious. I'm humble with little bits of brazen here and there. I'm an optimist with pessimist tendencies. Let's just say I'm multidimensional.

My Interests

Anything that makes me smile. Flowers, watching movies, creating something pretty, going to art museums, finding random places to photograph, traveling, winter scarves, learning random stuff about random places, road trips, listening to music, my half hearted attempts at learning foreign languages (hehe), getting unexpected flowers(always great), photographing sunsets, colors, Autumn leaves, fields filled with flowers, walking paths lined with trees, blooming trees that rain flower petals onto the ground, my 2 sweet cats, vegan restaurants, exchanging emails with people in other countries, shopping, cute little cars, living in happinessCURRENT MOON lunar phase

I'd like to meet:

honest & kind people from all over the world. Let's exchange cultures, random thoughts, happiness, & jokes.
