Hey!!

I'm a warm, passionate, travel junkie that works as a photographer and journalist.

Here is some of my journalism and photography: www.averyleighwhite.com

Here is a side project I've been working on for years: http://www.facebook.com/TheWorldMusicLibrary

I'm looking for alternative travel experiences. I've been traveling around the world on the regular for the past 10 years. I've lived in Colombia, Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, and Chile, New Orleans and now Brooklyn! I I'm hugely interested in holistic health and nutrition, music, art and activism. I love chatting about music, art, culture, history etc.

PHILOSOPHY

love, share and create

教，学，和分享

I listen to music from around the world for an average of 3 hours a day and research music for an average of 2 hours a day (so I can share a lot of diverse musical movements with you!) Other things I can share: I love art, I've traveled around South America extensively for over 3 years. I would love to learn anything and everything about music, culture and art! Gardening is a big one on my list of needed-insights. I'm trying to learn Portuguese. French would be rad too.
