An exact moment in time, to how and where this all started, maybe at at the age of five? An independent girl, reaching for her own cereal, to the night gown that caught fire. The challenging times of transitions, changing schools, moving state to state, then to a different country! The opportunities, the challenges, learning a new culture and language. This seemed so fast and furious during the vulnerable teenage years. No time to think, to feel. At the age of 24, hungry with courage and drive to gather myself, my thoughts, to regroup and check-in, Who “AM I”? Who is the “ME” without preconceived notions or expectations. Where was the REAL me?

Date set, ticket booked, I flew back to the United States to live, doing it on my own. Here I would start the journey, my quest. Finding pieces to who I was meant to be. Curiously and Connected!
