About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To discover what it's like to walk in another person's shoes

ABOUT ME

I'm a single girl, red/blonde hair, blue eyes, with a huge love for life and people. I have a big smile, and I smile constantly! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Do to others as you'd want done to you.

I want to walk in as many people's shoes as I can, to see what it's like for everyone else and how they live, so I can understand them more.

Interests

Food - both cooking it and eating it, especially New Orleans food; books and reading; music with good lyrics about life; math, sailing, long conversations, penguins (and all nature), the ocean, war stories from veterans.
