About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Let Go

ABOUT ME

I like to watch rivers run, snow fall, hear trees grow. And skinny dipping is pretty important too.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life because I CAN. I am forever trying to balance out the needs for fun/ exercise and relaxing/ downtime... To become "enlightened" seems like an ambiguous goal, I just want to live in moments of clarity more and more often, to evolve... To experience the world, nature, people, to live With the world instead of On it. One Love, Baby!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every new day! Guess that's the good thing about having a crappy memory - I'm easily thrilled : )

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an electrician, I'm always willing to jump into a car project, I snowboard and kayak (not great at it but I can help out a beginner) and lift weights... Learning to identify plants and mushrooms - didn't get sick last summer: )!
Practice/ learn more Spanish!
I would like to set up a sweat lodge, but that idea had to move to the back burner for awhile. I'm still interested artisitic/ spiritual inspiration, rituals, songs, ideas to "throw in the pot" while it simmers -I'm not Native American, but I am pure Alaskan, would like to begin developing traditions that match my philosophy and history.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm great at installing solar PV, doing dishes, cleaning and organizing, love little household projects. Not a chef, but I can make a basic healthy meal.
