About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet weird people wandering the world with positive intentions.

ABOUT ME

Right now I'm really into a style of communication called NVC (non-violent a.k.a. compassionate communication). I'm also into cooking meals with organic whole foods.

My partner is a chiropractor who enjoys cycling, running, SAILING, and travel. He's one of the friendliest people you'll ever meet!

PHILOSOPHY

Chill.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a sucker for Sex and the City and the Harry Potter books, also books and movies set in India. I also dig Ayn Rand, Tad Williams, Isabel Allende, house music, Grateful Dead, trance, Deadmau5, minimal tech, middle eastern music, John Mayer, Jewel, Dave Matthews, anyone who sounds great live, Kenny Chesney.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've camped out on the Utah salt flats under a full moon in the summer. Surreal! Definitely something I want to do again before I die.

Took a month long sailing trip from St. Thomas to Grenada and stopped at lots of islands along the way. A favorite memory is doing the night watch on the way back and listening to Christmas music on radio stations from all the islands we passed by in the balmy night.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think this community is all about pay-it-forward. Give what you can joyfully give when others are in need and know you have planted a seed for them to do the same :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Dominica, Grenada, Mexico, New Zealand, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, United States, Virgin Islands, British, Virgin Islands, U.S.
