My name is Lia; I grew up in a rural area in Northern NJ where we had a ton of pets on our 16-acre farm, and where I gained an extreme appreciation for nature and natural beauty. I love being outdoors, I love hiking, swimming, running, sports, animals, camping, circus arts, fire performance, hula hooping, acro yoga, visual arts, painting, sculpture, and much much more.... I attended college at SUNY New Paltz in New Paltz, NY and graduated in 2009 with a BA in Visual Arts. I have also more recently studied a variety of meditative and spiritual practices including vipassana meditation, hypnosis, sound healing, energy healing, alchemy and more... I am open minded, creative and love learning and sharing knowledge.
