One of my main life goals is to see how close I can get to living truly sustainably- that is, I would not produce any garbage and not use any non-renewable resource- and I work towards that daily. In the last 6 months (and counting) I have changed my diet radically and with few exeptions, I buy only locally-grown bulk food.

I am a big believer in buying used, such as at thrift stores and yard sales, and have recently discovered the joy in dumpster-diving.

My favorite form of transportation is by FAR the bicycle, and I am stubborn in my belief that driving is not necessary. This summer I went on my first bike tour with Wheeled Migration, and it supplemented my life in ways I didn't realize until the trip was over and there were bikes in my dreams and bikes in my smile.

I love underdog animals like chickens, pigeons, seagulls, squirrels and rats, and cheer for the bull instead of the cowboy. I am coincidentally a Taurus.

I'm a bring-your-own-everything, make-what-you-can't-buy, composting, dancing, cycling, life-loving foodie.

And I love you.
