What does Nova love most about nature?

Since she was just a little girl Nova has always found peace and happiness in nature. Whether it’s the rustle of leaves on a breezy day, the songs of birds at sunrise, or the feel of soft grass under her feet, nature has been her sanctuary! She’s the kind of kid who lights up at the sight of a blooming flower, who stops to watch butterflies dance, and who finds comfort in the whispering trees. Exploring the outdoors brings her a sense of freedom and joy like nothing else!!


What is Nova's favorite animal—and why?

Nova has always had a special love for frogs. There’s something about their bright colors, quirky movements, and the way they seem to blend into their surroundings that fascinates her. Whether she’s spotting tiny tree frogs hiding among the leaves or watching bullfrogs by the water’s edge, her excitement is contagious. Frogs are more than just animals to Nova; they’re a symbol of adventure and curiosity, always reminding her to explore the world around her with wide eyes and an open heart.


What is Nova's favorite outdoor activity?

Nova’s favorite hobby is exploring the Smoky Mountains, where her adventurous spirit truly comes alive. There’s something magical about the misty peaks, winding trails, and hidden streams that captivates her heart. Whether she’s hiking through dense forests, spotting wildlife along the path, or just soaking in the breathtaking views, Nova feels completely at home in the mountains. Each trip is a new adventure, filled with discoveries and memories that she cherishes.
