About Me
I love music, and I love singing. I am great with animals and have a lot of experience with farm animals and pets. I like the outdoors, I have lived in the Andes, the Amazon, and the Galapagos islands so I am a big fan of new places as well.
I am fascinated with cooking and love doing it, baking is also one of my favorite things to do.
