CURRENT MISSION

to learn, love, explore and evolve

ABOUT ME

We are a young couple, open minded and enjoy genuine encounters with others. Christina grew up in a very small, close-knit community on a very small island in Maine. Andre is from a French-Canadian family who lives in New Hampshire. We moved to Beverly, MA to attend college and that's where we met.

PHILOSOPHY

Live simply and love others

Teach, Learn, Share

We are classical musicians, Christina at piano and Andre at guitar. Christina teaches piano lessons and likes jamming with her housemates and singing to Andre's guitar playing.

We want to be organic farmers and/or landscapers when we finish school, and get married some day. We know some stuff about growing vegetables and gardening.

We are also interested in spirituality. We were both raised in the Christian church, though we are no longer "religious", but open to all religions.
