I graduated college in 2023 then WWOOF’ed in Hawaii with Seda for 6 months, then came here which means this is my first full time job as an adult out of college. As we all know, being an adult is hard. Luckily I have this amazing job where I am taken care of so now all I have to worry about is taking care of myself.
My partner Seda is very driven with her extracurricular activities; she does aerial silks once a week and now is thinking about taking classes or picking up another hobby. When we were talking about her endeavors, she said to me, “so what will you do?” Great question.
I do yoga once a week, I love reading and I like to bake too. As a farmer my full time job is also a lot of people’s hobby (gardening) but I still want to commit to something that will make me happy and keep me busy. I won’t publicly commit to anything on here to everyone but these are just the thoughts I’ve been having lately. Basically, being an independent adult with interests and hobbies is hard but I love having a partner who inspires me to be one!
