ABOUT ME
I am a 29 yo female, my passions are: art, music (creating in general), nature, hiking, yoga, plants (living things in general), genuine connection with people and things, fun! I co-own a wholesale gf/vegan baking business. I teach yoga/mantra meditation and ESL on a volunteer basis. I feel that this time in my life is one of focusing on what I am creating, I am undergoing a massive art project (abstract/documentary) and writing about my life on the road. I am a good listener, I like to share, I am aware, considerate, respectful, open-minded, open-hearted.
PHILOSOPHY
Live and let live. Love and be loved. The most important and powerful tool we have is our Word, so say what you mean and mean what you say. Be in integrity and have no regrets. Have an opinion and take a stand. Live with a fierceness with which you sometimes shock yourself.
