ABOUT ME

fun-loving, adventurous, sweet, laid-back; i'm more of a listener than a talker but enjoy deep conversations.
I accept all people of all backgrounds knowing that we are all connected with the universe.
I'm clean, i work hard, my favorite thing to do in the world is to help other people smile.

PHILOSOPHY

"be the change you wish to see in the world" -Gandhi (pretty typical but i read this quote several years ago and completely held on to the idea that we need to be our own example, act how you want to see others act and maybe you will influence others to join in working toward something beautiful).

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

when i was 16 i went to europe with a group of friends and we were staying at a lodge in the alps, we hiked up one alp over the span of two days, the first night we stopped half way at a cheese-maker's hut and had homemade hot chocolate by candlelight. we woke up at 3am to hike to the rest of the way with only headlamps to see. we hiked to the top of the alp to watch the sunrise...that is probably my most beautiful memory to date other than meeting amazing people and listening to their stories.

教，学，和分享

I am extremely interested in the environment and sustainability so i have a strong background in that which i can contribute, i garden, i cook vegetarian meals, i am a lgbt activist, i know lots about animals. I also do a lot of yoga and meditation so if you have questions about either topics I can probably answer them.

I would like to learn: more about traveling, other people's cultures, i want to get to know you.
