My name is Kari.
I grew up in a small town in Central California but now live near Los Angeles. I love traveling and just recently returned from Italy where I lived for 3 months.

I enjoy dancing, singing, watching foreign films, reading and talking about politics and world religions.
I like gelato (ice cream) very much, especially if it includes chocolate and fruit.

I would really like to own a pet dog someday and name him or her Zorro, after the Mexican legendary hero (the movie with Antonio Banderas).

I just graduated from university where I studied Teaching and Visual Art. I am returning to school this Fall to earn my Masters degree in Teaching. I look forward to meeting you and learning about your interests and life. I have included some photographs to help you get to know me.
 
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me."
