About Me

Don't dream your whole life, make life your whole dream.

Asking my friends about me, what would they say? I have a loud laugh, and a quiet smile. My friends say I have nice eyebrows. My friends like that I have faith in the future and in those around me, yet still have a healthy dose of cynicism.

i love to cook. put a back pack on my back and a pair of mountains, or a lake and no one around and I'll go skinning dipping. give me an opportunity and I'll take it.

I think that's what some of them would say....

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a hell or a heaven and it is all up to you which you choose. I want to go to bed everyday knowing that I said yes more than no. And wiggling makes the world go round-- body, mind, and soul.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have used this very little still but I've done lots of traveling, meeting people in places and then going to visit them and their couches throughout parts of the States, Europe, South America, and West Africa. All of those experiences were fantastic and I´ll keep some of those friends forever.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm not so into movies or tv, but love a good movie on rainy days. I have 4 books by my bedside. Ask away, they are constantly changing and rotating...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

oooohhh.. good question, let me get back to you.

I once saw clouds catch on fire. so insistent was I that I actually called people away from making bread to see where the fire started. and as they ran out, a silver sliver hit the horizon, and grew. a full moon! it was the most amazing moon rise I have ever seen. everyone laughed and went back to work, but I stayed and watched the whole thing. quite awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

I share yoga, making chai, sustainable agriculture techniques, basic bike mechanics, mushroom picking, good stuff.
