FAVORITE QUOTES: “Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like falling leaves." ~John Muir

 About Me:  If I had to describe/label myself in one haphazard paragraph of run-on sentences it would go like this: I care greatly about the environment… I subscribe to the philosophy of Deep Ecology; I'm also fascinated by permaculture. I am happiest in nature and hope to spend my life protecting our natural resources and preserving the wilds for future generations. I don't eat meat either, but I don't consider myself a vegetarian. I also firmly believe in belonging to and giving back to the local community. I don't like to wear shoes, and don't own any make up. My favorite food is pastry, my favorite color is pink, my favorite comic is Calvin and Hobbes, I like maps and I floss regularly.
