Hello! My name is Kristine and I live and work in New York City. Since I have been here I have realized how hard it is to maintain a healthy balance while living in the City. Work starts to consume your life and you can get lost in everything around you.
Fun events! I wish I wasn’t working so much this summer so I could par-take…hopefully come Sept my schedule will free up a bit–I’m do down for ARe you game!
