ABOUT ME
Just trying to play the game in order to be in the game. I made it out of my office job and the country (update: countries). One chapter closed and now writing a new one. I'm eager to encounter new characters for my book.
I like the sun, and I want to see more of it. I can toss a tasty dish or two on the table. I am a hostess who likes to dance. And hula hoop. Travel, language, nutrition, exercise, music: a few things guiding my future.
Currently seeking climbing and cycling partners. Beware I'm a novice, but do enjoy learning.
PHILOSOPHY
living for the self leads you to a lonely place, but living for others brings happiness with you wherever you go

Music, Movies, and Books
Soul, Jazz, Funk and Motown are my go-to-dance choices. Classical is surprisingly satisfying while riding the metro in Madrid. And everything else that is good has its own place and time.
M.F.K. Fisher has my heart at the moment.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Smiling uncontrollably on Wednesdays.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you English, of course. And how to hula hoop. Maybe even a little bit about building a violin. Did I mention cooking? I love it.
