CURRENT MISSION

To give travelers a comfortable homebase for their journey in my city. To share experiences and understandings.

ABOUT ME

I am a passionate and grounded guy. I love dancing and poetry. I love to cook and sit quietly at home watching a slow sunset and sharing a meal with friends. Traveling, I like to walk until I am lost and discover the feel of neighborhoods. I thrive in sharing space with others.

PHILOSOPHY

Live your truth even as it twists and transforms. Grow along this path and find where you belong. Give yourself to this life as if it were valuable beyond measure. Remember the silence that abides just beneath.
