About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Be Kind to Everyone

ABOUT ME

I am a fifty year old happily married grandmother, who for the past 5 years has been traveling the world. I enjoy hoisting my backpack whether carrying it through an airport or trekking in the Himalaya. I love life, a good laugh and good vegetarian/vegan food.

I rise before sunrise because I enjoy watching the morning arrive.

PHILOSOPHY

Understanding my true nature and being kind to all beings.
