Description
I am known for my enthusiasm and curiousity because I love to travel and to try new things!
I enjoy working hard, whether it is for fun (hiking and cross-country skiing in our beautiful state of Michigan, USA) or working out at the gym, cooking, and gardening/yard work. To relax, I enjoy reading, doing yoga and meditation, as well as animals and being in nature.
I have been involved in a dog-training group for a number of years.
I speak English, and speak passable Italian and Spanish. I have worked as an ESL tutor and a writing tutor to foreign-born students.Interests
