Über mich
CURRENT MISSION
Wrap my Arms Around the World.
ABOUT ME
I am a compulsive perfectionist who lives in a constant state of chaos. I am the only child of two aging hippies, and once lived in a teepee for like, 6 months. I laugh far too easily, but I like serious, poignant movies best. I think language is sexy.
I spend most of my Monday-Friday either at my job or at the dance studio, but weekends are for adventures.
PHILOSOPHY
We do not inherit the earth from our fathers. We borrow it from our children.

[Music] Very nearly everything. I know, that's so cliche...blah blah blah. BUT! It's true. I love discovering new music, and I tend to like, you know "indie shit." But I also love Philip Glass, dominican rap, folk music, drake, and other decidedly not edgy or indie stuff.
Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe
Night on the Ganga River in Varanasi...dark water filled with hundreds of tiny candles, and funeral pyres burning on the shore.
