About Me

ABOUT ME

I dance...a lot.

I like to take walks at night. Read books until I fall asleep. Press flowers and hopscotch.I am very passionate about the importance of giving and sharing. I like to drink tea and feed others. I like learning and sharing life stories. Most of all I love appreciating the interconnectedness that we share with everything and everyone.

PHILOSOPHY

"It may be that when we no longer know which way to go that we have come to our real journey. The mind that is not baffled is not employed. The impeded stream is the one that sings."
— Wendell Berry

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visited a village just off the coast of Mexico that didn't have any roads or transportation or electricity. It was heaven...and bared witness to 30 newly born piglets all at once. The cutest thing my eyes have every seen.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make some of my favorite recipes. I would love to learn about your experiences in life (and any dance moves you might have). And, I have plenty of stories to share about my time as a farming apprentice in the mountains of New Hampshire.
