About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Always searching to find my Zen, learn from others, and embrace the Journey.
ABOUT ME
I am a special education teacher and freelance writer. I love to travel, explore, and meet new people. I believe in peace, freedom, love and karma.
"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars." - Jack Kerouac
