Plant care, animal care, musical interest, learning spanish, and reading
I have a sincere appreciation for caring for indoor and outdoor plants, as well as cultivating a garden in my backyard that includes both decorative flowers and productive vegetables. My affection for my animals is evident in my companionship with my dog and rabbit, and I would relish the opportunity to have even more furry friends. In addition to my role as a care taker to my furry friends, I find it quite enjoyable to play various instruments including the ukulele, piano, and kalimba. Furthering my personal growth, I am currently learning spanish and derive joy from immersing myself in literature.
