CURRENT MISSION

To be dazzled

ABOUT ME

I'm passionate, inquisitive and easygoing. I fear complacency. I was blessed with a wanderlust that can only be treated by frequent trips to unknown places.

PHILOSOPHY

"Serenity of spirit and turbulence of action should make up the sum of a man's life." (Vita Sackville-West)

Interests

Poetry. Anything outdoors- running, cycling, camping, hiking. Learning about other cultures by getting outside my own. Politics. Banana bread and Mexican food. Finding my place in this mad, beautiful world. Late nights with good friends.
