More about me:

I am a happy woman, goofy, outspoken, foodie who loves to travel and take the path less trodden. I am patient, reasonably trusting and admire above all else a sense of irreverence and great humor.

The greatest pleasure in life is to share. I can enjoy a great exhibition by myself but there is synergy in seeing art, hearing music or visiting new places when caught through the senses of another. All the rest is just logistics and window dressing and nothing a little conversation and compromise can't work out.
