I am a creative, deep-diving type who paints, gardens, reads anything that hits hard. Music is my lifeblood. I've got a dry sense of humor, a restless mind, and a soft spot for honest meaningful conversations and friendship. Other ways of life fascinate me, and I love to see things from other points of view, both personally and culturally. I had a pen pal as a teenager and that friendship was one of the highlights for me growing up. How cool is it to get a good old-fashioned letter in the mail from across the world??
