I love life! and travel, people, nature, cities, food, laughing, swimming, dancing, reading, writing, my husband--oh, and people people people. I practice Nichiren Buddhism and that's my bastion for keeping it always on the up and up.

I share life with my amazing husband, Trae, and kitties, Dahlia Rose and Solomon.

Have heard great things through friends, thought I'd try it out.
