CURRENT MISSION
Following my heart, seeing where it takes me.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy meeting new people, discovering new places and singing. Love the feeling of being absorbed in nature and connecting with plants, wild landscapes.

My background is Armenian, German and Italian mostly. I have a five year old companion, Kaiya my lab sharpee mix. I love ethnic food, travel and immersing myself in new cuisine & fantastic culture. I am a photographer and yoga instructor on the side. Gardening and herbs are fun too.

PHILOSOPHY

"Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it"- Eckhart Tolle

I knew that if I allowed fear to overtake me, my journey was doomed. Fear, to a great extent, is born of a story we tell ourselves, and so I chose to tell myself a different story from the one women are told. I decided I was safe. I was strong. I was brave. Nothing could vanquish me.
― Cheryl Strayed

I find that when we really love and accept and APPROVE OF OURSELVES EXACTLY AS WE ARE, then everything in life works. It's as if little miracles are everywhere- Louise Hay
