HI! I’m Raylene, and I am an American/ Canadian, recently moved back to New Mexico, USA.
I love lizards, chocolate, flowers, music, hedgehogs, late nights, being creative, and most things Sci Fi. I sing and dance my way through life. Yup, I admit it… I’m a little weird! “It’s OK to be WEIRD!” is my motto! I hope to help others to embrace their “inner weirdie” and to realize that we’re all a little weird in our own way.
