CURRENT MISSION

To better myself, and meet as many interesting people as I can

ABOUT ME

"I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world." -CS Lewis

Heya! I'm Augusta :) I'm an extremely passionate person. My interests include but are not limited to: Literature, Hiking, Drawing, Photography, Live Music, Painting, Singing, White water sports, Rock Climbing, Snowboarding, and Dancing— in no particular order.

I love meeting new people, and I do fairly often living in a tourist town.
My sun sign is Virgo, and my Moon sign is Libra.
I have lived in many places, and love to travel. I currently live in Manitou Springs, Colorado: but I've lived in Bond, Golden, and Lafayette (Colorado), Murfreesboro, Clarksville, and Gallatin (Tennessee), Savannah, Georgia, Brunswick, Maine, Birmingham, Alabama, Petal, Mississippi, and Fort Devons, Massachusetts. I'm constantly taking photographs or doodling on something, be it a napkin or even my pants. I've hosted many a couchsurfer and find it a bit refreshing to be surfing. I love meeting new people, so come sit and have a nice cup of tea with me. I bet there are many stories to be shared! :)
