CURRENT MISSION

LOVE. To love life and each experience and person

ABOUT ME

I have changed my name since I created this profile, a dear friend gifted me the first name Amana and it has felt right since then, and then I married my Soul Flame and changed my last name to Faulkner! Sorry for any confusion this might cause :)

I love life and try my best appreciate it each day. I love the little things in life that make me happy :)

Being outside, in nature renews me. I am always learning and exploring. I love food and cultures and the outdoors. I climb, hike, camp, flyfish, and swim in rivers and lakes :)

I am in a journey of self discovery, learning about energy, chakras, tarot, I smudge, meditate, play with tarot cards, and practice reiki regularly!

PLAY!!!! <3 I LOVE to play..... especially with others who like to play too :)

Dance dance dance <3

Experiences and the intimate moments we have with other human beings is worth everything in life! I love the scary vulnerable moments had with good, friends, lovers and even strangers...

PHILOSOPHY

LOVE LOVE LOVE... i am a romantic and a realist... but i believe that true earth shattering love can conquer pretty much everything... and love and forgiveness and acceptance and grace make this world a better place and I try to love, forgive, embrace, except and show grace as continually as possible to the amazing humans i get to encounter

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In no particular order....
- Falling in love
- Jerusalem on Christmas eve/ Channukah.... one of my favorite times ever! Spent the day walking through the small old streets, ate falafel and the strange creamy warm drink they serve on the streets. Ran through the pouring rain at the end of the day to go to listen to Christmas carols, lit some candles and made potato latkes!
- Paragliding off a cliff in the French Alps!
- Held the first man that I loved as he took his last breath
- Helicopter ride over Sidney
- Watching babies being born into this world as an assistant to midwives :)
- El Camino De Santiago: walked 800km from France to Santiago, beautiful scenery, met SO MANY incredible people and made life long friends!!!
- AMAZING BEAUTIFUL thunderstorm I got to experience with my sweet host in Santorini!!!! I will NEVER forget that! OR the impromptu dance party we had the following night :)))
