I live with my wife outside of Warrenton, Virginia, USA on an acreage (“farmette” if you are a realtor). We own seven acres with a view of the rolling hills of Virginia’s Piedmont region. If you’ve been here, you know the beauty of Virginia horse and wine country. If you haven’t, I encourage you to visit when possible!
We currently share our home and land with 11 animals: two horses, two dogs, three cats, and four chickens. The chickens (Valentina, Sally, Mae, and Megan) are the most recent additions. The dogs and cats are all rescues, and we have also been able to foster two other dogs (through Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation) in the past year, both of whom found loving “furever” homes.

I was raised a city girl; this is the first place I’ve lived without access to a subway system. However, considering the coronavirus pandemic, I feel so lucky to have this rural home. I hope you and yours are also staying safe and healthy, wherever you are!
