Just moved to the most amazing city I have ever seen...Eugene Oregon. The food, people and nature (waterfalls, rivers, mountains, blueberry hunting etc) are second to none!!!.
And I live in Steve Ptefontaines old trailer house. Look him up! An oregon legend who helped start NIKE!
Just returned from my 13th around the world adventure so exhausted. No worries, tons of free concerts and hotsprings and beaches await here in Eugene!!!
to help as many orphans and trafficked kids as possible and to live like today was my last day
