Cook—Gardener—Writer—Speaker—Photographer—World Traveler

At the age of 19 I began my travels, leaving New York City with a one-way ticket and hitch-hiking around Europe for 6 months. Since then, I've lived in Italy, Wales, Israel, and India for varying lengths of time, from 3 months to 5 (unexpected) years, and traveled elsewhere in the Far East and Europe.

 

I'm a product of the 60's in New York City, having engaged in everything of those fantastic turbulent times and eventually discovering Yoga—becoming one of the first group of practitioners and teachers at the Integral Yoga Institute, and a vegetarian when it wasn’t fashionable. The flexibility developed, in both body and mind from that path, has helped me maintain a youthful spirit and attitude, and makes my age irrelevant and even absurd. I was also the only young white woman driving a taxi in NYC in the early 70's, an adventure indeed.

 

My greatest joy comes from the creative flow of Life moving through me—expressing as gardens filled with flowers, vegetables and herbs; and delicious, nourishing (primarily vegetarian) meals. Creating beauty and deliciousness brings me joy—and nourishes me (and others) inside and out. And recording The Face of Love I encounter on my travels is a a Gift I delight in...

Since 1999, Sahara has been a proponent of the Evolution Revolution—an era of change that is currently in the stage she calls The Great Transformation: this period of societal upheaval and political antics indicating the death throes and approaching dissolution of the Old Paradigm, and the emerging of a new way of being in Harmony with all Life. 

 

She is the creator of The Face of Love(TM) portrait photography—the face we show to others but never see ourselves; and The Uplift & Inspire Collection—pithy messages in postcard format. Her life is dedicated to "transforming the fabric of reality for the well-being of all."

"Although I was brought up well, appreciate beauty, and enjoy fine things, I wasn't especially driven to achieve on the material plane, as once I became aware of the possibility of 'knowing God' it became my raison d'être—so through the years I have done more or less whatever presented itself to me, always somehow getting by, engaging in a wide range of activities and experiencing at least three or four different sides of the tracks, from first class to no class.​​​​​​​​​

​

I love children, relate to them easily, and they respond to me well. And while I have good friends my age, many of my close friends are in their 20s, 30s and 40s—I still feel like that 19-year-old: traveling one-way on an incredible journey..."
