ME, PERSONALLY

I love to try and learn new things. Some things that stuck with me over the years are: art and crafts (sculpting, liquid printwork - ebru, collages), surfing (wave), rollerblading, reading or listening to keep my mind balanced, healthy eating. I’m recently learning about Ayurvedic nutrition, Qi Gong and plant propogation/nurturing.
