about me
I sold or gave everything away and I left LA!! I am traveling through India and my next stop is Bali. Any one care to join me on this adventure?
*****I am adventurous, spontaneous, curious, well rounded, independent, self sufficient, compassionate, loyal, generous, passionate, romantic and goofy. I LOVE LIFE, my dog, my friends, drumming, dancing, yoga,my nerf football, laughter, love, learning, happy people, horses, monkeys, the sun, rivers, the ocean, tropical rainstorms, outdoor showers, candle light, fireworks, music, capoeria, traveling, sailing, scuba, reading, biking, beach tennis, talking, culture, raw food, spicy food, spicy poeple, red, turquoise, photos, classic cars, Agape, alternative medicine, Eastern philosophy, singing bowls, massages, to recycle, eat organic, shop at farmers market and spoil my man. I love helping people and making a difference. My younger years were spent on a commune in Oregon, a short stint in Mulvane, Ks (population 3, 000) and then in Bali with people from all over the world. I have lived on my own since 10th grade. The international school in Bali at the time was bad, so I had the choice between boarding school in Singapore or an apartment by my self in Eugene Ore. At 19 went to Hawaii for 2 weeks and stayed 9 months. At 21 bought a car and drove around Europe for 6 months. Used to spend winters in South Beach, spring in NYC, and summers in Europe or Asia. I had a horse when I was a kid, so I am looking into adopting a wild horse to break my self. I can not be put in one category. I have never had a 9-5 job and never want one. My mom and I share a shop that sells furniture, building materials, housewares, gift items, clothing, jewelry and accessories from Indonesia. I own an investment property out of state. I renovated a house in Studio City where I did a multitude of the work my self. I LOVE POWER TOOLS and spackle . In the past I have managed a rock band and an R&B singer. How you live your life is a choice, so I choose to make it the best possible. I am not materialistic but I enjoy quality. I have had an extraordinary life, now I am looking for extraordinary people to have amazing experiences with. I am of Eastern European decent, but I know nothing of my heritage except that we are gypsies. I feel that in my blood. I feel more "Eastern" since my mom moved to Bali in '84 and I have been going almost every year. I speak Indonesian and Balinese fluently and can get by in others. Traveling is my passion! I have been to around 30 countries. I love new people, places and dishes. Bali is my second home. I love Greece and Morocco. There are still so many places I want to explore. I am looking for a place to open a boutique hotel. The world is my class room. I'd love to learn something every day. I have learned so much by getting out of my own environment. Appreciation and knowledge, may it be from royalty or the penniless. I'd like to take a class now and then for the rest of my life. Having traveled so much I respect all faiths. I think there is so much more to GOD and to people than I understand. I believe in GOD and that there are many manifestations of GOD.

My friend Steve is having a drum circle in his garden for the full moon tonight. We will have to stop the loud noises at some point, so some softer sounds will be necessary. I was thinking it would be great if we had some singing bowls, chanting, guitar, etc. tonight under the full moon to in addition to our drumming and dancing.

love & blessings, Melanie Star
