About Me

CURRENT MISSION

when I smile life smiles back

ABOUT ME

I'm a healthy ~ happy california hippy chica, looking for new experiences with new people. I don't have a stomach for negative attitudes, I'm a morning person no matter how little I sleep, am completely aware that a smile is the most contagious gift! Like many, I am very open minded and accepting of all the diversity this beautiful planet has to offer. Simple pleasures interest me, beginning with a great conversation and a good cup of coffee!!

PHILOSOPHY

C'è una differenza fra avere la vita e vivere la vita... l'amore non è una cosa che esiste da sola, ma dev'essere condiviso, dato, ricevuto, e sentito per vivere, per esistere... e un sorriso è il regalo più importante nel mondo.

There's a difference between having life and living life.

Love is not something that exists on its own, but rather it must be shared, given, received, and shown in order to live and grow, in order to exist.

A smile is the most important gift in the world... and freely given, you never know who may be inspired by your smile.

DREAM WITH YOUR EYES OPEN AND HUG WITH YOUR HEART
