About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Besides annihilating the 26 miles in Honolulu next week, my mission is to avoid sleeping with turtles & crabs. :P

ABOUT ME

Right now I'm preparing to head down to Honolulu. I'm hoping to find a couch on the North Shore of Oahu. Hewp Meeeeeee... Everything is booked! :O

I love my hometown of Toronto but, I'm always looking for ways to escape. I'll never feel like I have travelled enough, or read enough books.
I think play is as important as work.
Writing is a way for me to process.
Dancing is something my body expects every week.
Love kidz & critters!
I'm an intrepid vegetarian cook... cuz I think compassion is Top!
I'm political ... and for lack of a better phrase, I'm a work in progress. I like to challenge and be challenged.
I dig a kool brain. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Be tolerant. Being judgemental is a human trait that causes more harm than good. Something I try to be mindful of. I try to be present. ... I find the more I do, the less I can absorb. In the end I will summarize the success of my life in the experiences I had with people ... not how practical I was, or what I acquired. I have a lot of good friends. Most of them I have known for many years, (one since I was 5 yrs old!). When I'm lucky enough to find a good one, I work at keeping them.
And most importantly ... be responsible, but don't forget you're a kid inside.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music prefs are too extensive to list ... I can summarize by saying most everything but country. I have a love for Industrial, Foreign Classical, & anything with a wikkid beat.

Movies include documentary, and Horror. Good horror is all about suspense, and that is just plain hard to come by. Let me know if there is something I should see!

Can't live without books or music, so again too extensive to list. But I am mostly a non-fiction reader, with an appreciation for fantasy & sci-fi, and childrens books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A bunch of stuff... and probably some things I shouldn't mention here! :P
One of the most amazing things I have seen are the red rock mountains of Sedona, AZ. ... or King Ludwig's Castle Neuschwanstein, in Bavaria. Absolute bananas!

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, France, Germany, Jamaica, Monaco, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United States
