Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
i believe in breakfast
ABOUT ME
pretty positive, active, honest dude who likes a good feed, weird music, fine wine, strong coffee and enchanting company. i've played drums and guitar in a few bands over the years. i love mountain biking and going up the wrong hills
PHILOSOPHY
kurt vonnegut's "we are here to fart around and don't let anyone tell you any different" pretty much sums it up. but i work hard and live with purpose! not religious but kind of spiritual, in a way; y'know, like a floatation tank....?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
cycled solo from seoul to busan over 5 days during the wettest august on record. a great experience and most things in life seemed much easier after that
spent a month at a mindfulness community in northern thailand. actually life-changing

i like creative/active types whether they are artists, musicians, thinkers or synchronised swimmers. i embrace people with a story to tell.
it's always great if you can help out with some cooking
