Hey everyone, I believe that stories are the most sacred thing that we can share with one another. I spend too much time looking at screens for work, so prefer a snail-mail pen pal. I started learning the guitar not long ago, and am terrible, but it's important to do things that we're terrible at and enjoy doing it. I love listening to music, painting (I'm a better painter than guitar player), writing, hiking, camping, and language in general. I live with my two dogs and they bring me an incredible amount of joy. In the summer, I garden. I love writers and books who make me feel connected.
