Safety awareness
Biking, Vegan Cooking, Outdoors/Nature, Music Concerts, Art Museums
I once cycled from New York City to the Catskill Mountains and bike or walk whenever possible. I love to experiment with making vegan food including vegan cheese and desserts. The Hirshhorn Art Museum in Washington D.C. is one of my favorite local day trips. I spend as much time as possible in nature: swimming, hiking, camping, and biking. I love music and incorporate my mixes into classes.
