Outdoor activities, hiking, travel, and music
I live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and I take pleasure in exploring the local hiking trails in the area. I enjoy the diversity of traveling to different parts of the world and experiencing different cultures. Dancing for me is way to express freedom and joy, along with music which speaks to my soul.
