My Interests

Nurturing my child to be all she is, nurturing myself likewise, being inspired by books, blogs, breath. Healing. Getting more into my hips. Playing with masks. Having my breast there for Luna whenever she needs it. Facing my shadow, and beginning to feel more comfortable in this skin. Dancing - discovering the beat. Re-discovering/discovering my artist. I'm a real night owl...hummm, does that fit with parenting?

I'd like to meet:

Humour

Humility

Dynamism

Dancers

Trippers on music

Synthesisers
