ABOUT ME
I'm a 24 year old adventurous post-graduate, originally from Connecticut, who loves scenic road trips, photography, dancing, hiking, laughing, meditation, and yoga. I'm a sucker for a good story, especially one accompanied by a cup of coffee or glass of wine.

PHILOSOPHY

Be Here Now : ). I'm a cheerleader for mindfulness and personal revolutions; committed to growth and change.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to boogie, and get the most out of your digital camera. I'm also into alternative baking, and can teach you how to make some grain or gluten-free desserts. I can also share little things (smiles, insights, and melodramatic haikus about doing the dishes). And I love to learn - I'd especially like to be more musically inclined.
