CURRENT MISSION

simple: happiness. I want to enjoy life EVERYDAY

ABOUT ME

Hi! I love connecting with people, and I have a thing about beverages and food--I love them! Tea, coffee, microbrews, red wine, juicy salads, veggie burgers, falafel. Good food, good drink, good conversation, and live music get me off :)

PHILOSOPHY

"When you know and respect your own inner nature, you know where you belong. You also know where you don't belong. The wise know their limitations, the foolish do not. Unlike other forms of life, though, people are easily led away from what is right for them, because people have brain, and brain can be fooled. Inner nature, when relied upon, cannot be fooled."-- Tao of Pooh

Interests

I love the outdoors; hiking, biking, blading, camping, swimming, exploring. I love weather in general; rain, snow, sun, wind, lightning. I really enjoy good food, good drink, and good conversation. I didn't discover music until college, and it's been a huge part of my life since then.
