“Hi, I’m Dakota — and if I had to describe myself in one word, it would be fire. Not just because I’m an Aries (though I definitely live up to it), but because I’m all about chasing goals, exploring the unknown, and feeling everything — sometimes a little too much. I’m passionate about traveling, discovering new cultures, and tasting my way through the world’s kitchens. Cooking is one of my favorite ways to express love and creativity. Oh, and I live with a very charismatic red-haired cat who definitely thinks he runs the show.”
