I LOVE being physically active, especially outdoors. When the weather’s good, you can most likely find me walking, biking, or running around the city. During winter, I hula hoop and rock climb instead.
I’m a summer girl, through and through. I live for warm, sunny days where I can be outside at all times with a tank top and flip flops. Someday I’ll live in a place where it’s like this year-round :)
It’s rare for me to go a day without coffee, dark chocolate, and hummus. Mmm antioxidants and protein.
I like to dabble in cooking (only healthy recipes), painting (only abstract works), and journaling (only while traveling). What can I say, I have very particular interests!
Speaking of travel – I *love* it. I know everyone cites travel as an interest, but for me it is WAY more than that. It’s a mindset – a way of life, if you will – that has helped define me. Some of my awesome travel experiences include:
I don’t read as often as I should, but when I do it’s usually a murder mystery. Draw from that what you will ;)
I also don’t worry as much as I should, but I’m ok with that. I never sweat the small stuff!
I’m the worst at relaxing and doing nothing. Massages? Resorts? Lazy Sundays? I can’t even handle it.
I am nontraditional, energetic, a wee bit nutty, and fiercely independent.
If I had to coin a life philosophy, it would be along the lines of: fill your life with things you *want* to do, while minimizing the things you *have* to do. I’m convinced it’s the secret to happiness, and someday I’m going to to write a book about it!
What do I *want* to do? I want to travel the world and photograph awesome people who dig who I am and what I’m about. If that sounds good to you, send me an e-mail and let’s chat!
