CURRENT MISSION

I don't want to set the world on fire

ABOUT ME

I am a warm, friendly, and a pretty easy person to get along with. I like to explore new realms, see unusual things, learn about micro-communities, and visiting various art musems/galleries. I am a big foodie, love sharing my knowledge, and participate in interesting discussions. Oh yeah I can also be pretty frugal, nothing better than a good deal or free stuff.

"No one puts my cheese in the corner!"

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live.

Staying in touch with body and mind brings peace and ends suffering.

"Some people say they haven't yet found themselves. But the self is not something one finds; it is something one creates."

--Thomas Szasz,
Hungarian psychiatrist
