ABOUT ME

I am a dancer at heart who loves to learn. I have an insatiable appetite for life and for food. I tend to be rather independent and I relish my solitude. I am somewhere inbetween extrovert and introvert, with strong emotions and silly tendencies.

PHILOSOPHY

A wise man said...Learn to begin what you must do before it grows too great.

Not all those who wander are lost!
