I want to work my way up to being as self sufficient as possible. I'm planning to have my first chickens this spring, and eventually goats. I love to garden both flowers and veggies, as well as mushrooms. I draw a lot, do a little sculpting, most of my hobbies are just creative things. I also have a lot of experience cooking and baking and I really love to make food for people!
The biggest struggle is that a lot of people in my age group seem heavily invested in videogames/tv/social media and I feel a bit out of touch because I just don't gravitate to a lot of it. I stopped all social media when I turned 17 and have always felt like I wanted to do my own thing instead of watching others. I've been called "old school" and I'd say it's true.
I really want kids, a small farm, and just a peaceful life. It's just been hard to find someone who is serious about that lifestyle and it's really important to me that we have the same goals/values. The most attractive thing to me is just if someone can talk to me, like we literally can just get along and have fun together... it also does not hurt to be handy or mechanical because that is not my strength haha.
I live in the Fingerlakes region of NY State, I'm hoping there is someone in that area that would want to get in touch. I live in a place where I can get started on working towards everything, just kinda lonely if I'm being honest!
