CURRENT MISSION To live life and continue with my poetry. ABOUT ME I am a curious person. I love to read and learn as much as I can about a myriad of subjects, cultures, customs, science, politics, health, etc. I consider myself open minded and have always found it easy to converse with many characters. Thoughtful and insightful is how my friends have described me. PHILOSOPHY My philosophy is one that is in search of a "balanced life." I feel that in this crazy world one needs to find this much needed middle ground. I have been finding the first steps in this search in yoga and contemplation. I enjoy the cities of the world, but I also cannot live without the healing of nature and outdoors.
Interested in Adventure Sports
