Introduction 80% Vegetarian, avid reader, constant traveller, believer and promoter of a environmentalist way of life. I'm an avid supporter of free education and free health care for every inhabitant of this planet. Being from a so-called developing nation I understand the need to educate people and to break the cycle of poverty. That and the importance of health care reforms to enable real protection for all. I get excited while recycling, composting, eating melted chocolate, playing with my nephews, stepping on crunchy leaves and standing still under the sun. I'm a social psychologist. I love people watching. It's all in the mix: Cultural Catholic of Jewish and Indigenous ancestry raised Christian now Agnostic.
Interests neon colors, backpacking around the world, ice cream, reading (preferably in bed), coffee, vanilla tea, vintage tshirts, scarfs, creativity flashes, apple juice, the quiet Matheson aisles, bubble tea with pearls, volunteering, sunny days, hot chocolate on rainy days, crunchy autumn leaves, movies with a purpose, comfortable shoes, responsible living, music for every occasion, random stories, spending quality time with loved ones, Macca's ice cream cones, greek salads (or anything with feta cheese), and procrastinating in my natural space: Facebook.
