ABOUT ME
Hey there! I'm from the central US and love to meet new people and see new places. I love to read, write, paint, sew, got to bars, attend concerts, check out new museums and local cuisine. I also love movies and music! Record shopping is a must when I'm out of town. Also, I love showing people my city. St. Louis is small but full of treasures.
PHILOSOPHY
last year i swam at the bottom of a well and climbed to the top of an ancient step pyramid. life's like that, and that's why i love it.
