ABOUT ME
One laid-back lady.
PHILOSOPHY
You see there are in our countries rivers which have no names, trees which nobody knows, and birds which nobody has described... Our duty, then, as we understand it, is to express what is unheard of.
--Pablo Neruda

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Moon gazing in Merzouga, Morocco. Beautiful. The moon was yellow, tilted on its side, too, like a slice of lemon.
Picking black raspberries in the pouring rain, naked.
