ABOUT ME

I am THE free spirit! I live way outside the lines. I do what makes me happy, what is interesting, what makes others happy... I don't worry about society or what they expect or consider "normal". You never know what I'll do next, but you can bet your a** it will make for good story-telling later! :) Learn more about me, where I'm going and what I'm up to by following my blog! www.barbonabike.wordpress.com

PHILOSOPHY

Follow your bliss, be who you are, infect the world with kindness and compassion, always keep things in perspective, and be awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a healer. I can teach many of the healing arts. I can also impart my knowledge of music, writing, cooking, sports, animal cohabitation, acceptance, nutrition, and a bunch of other randomness.

I could use some more pointers on surfing, I'd like to learn as many languages as I can muster, and I'd love it if someone could teach me how not to kill plants.
