Hiya! The most important things to me are authenticity and honesty with oneself and others. I believe that traveling and meeting people offers a lucidity that one would be hard pressed to find in other places. I recently moved to Spain to do just that, to find that clarity, to chase my roots a bit, and to learn the language :). I am vegetarian, I like engaging with nature, reading books on philosophy, public policy, and social work, and conversing with people.
