About Me

Things that vibe with me:
the color green
trees
minimalism
nature
respect
comfortable silences
positive mental attitude
positive thoughts
sun
fermentation
stories
all forms of art
open-mindedness
bicycling
swimming
raw honesty

I limit alcohol usage to cooking and consuming as an ingredient in foods because, as a beverage, it does not make me feel well, though I welcome others partaking in consuming alcoholic beverages.

I hope to have my own space to share with others in the future
