    Greetings!

    My home will always be home, but my soul forever seeks adventure. To know others more, be present, appreciate nature, or learn new skills. Some core values: faith, integrity, patience in the process, kindness, gratitude, nutrition and learning through experiences - no experience wasted.

    I am genuine and passionate about many things. My goal is to learn new skills (organic farming, living off the land, nutrition, yoga, community care, culture, and conservation), but see what I can contribute to the best of my ability. I am fascinated to learn almost anything. And thankful for the people willing to teach! I enjoy this exchange with others; and connecting.

    I never want to appear forceful or narrow-minded about my own views. Open-minded; I enjoy learning of others' lives; their cultures, experiences, beliefs, ideas and goals, and the curiosities they wonder about. I admire creativity and exploring uncharted paths (both within ourselves and environments beyond).

    I can be very social, however time in silence and personal reflection is also important to me. I have an aversion to too much social media, or reliance on our devices, and enjoy challenging myself to learn without it. This means: going to the library, asking others, trial and error, looking at maps instead of GPS, etc. The world is so busy, but I fear we lose something in all the hustle and effort trying to save time.
