Personal Information

I'm 36 years old and I enjoy learning and growing individually, and within all of my relationships. I like to learn about many different topics, teachings, etc. and keep what I find useful from each one. My favorite place to be is by the water listening to the sound. I find it calming and relaxing and my thoughts just disappear. I am a Virginia native and grew up on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, and now I live in Culpeper, Virginia.
