CURRENT MISSION To see as much of the world as is humanly possible. To be surprised and bewildered and amazed. To speak with my eyes and listen with my heart, and to gather the world- the good and the bad- put it in my pocket to cherish. To connect. To change. ABOUT ME Though my fascination with the world outside the US has always been present, a figurative fire has recently been lit under my ass, spurring on the uncontrollable desire (necessity) to travel and connect with the world. My interests are far reaching and oddly matched but include a great deal of eastern philosophy and metaphysical science, natural medicine, writing, reading (Sedaris and Salinger are my lovers), photography, film (especially indie and documentary), cooking, music (listening, not playing.... damn my lack of coordination), wine, yoga, and astrology. Though I am steady in many ways, my hair color seems to change by the month, my educational aspirations are relentless and ever-evolving, and I'm yet to find a location that can hold my interest long enough to be called home. Then again, home is everywhere if you want it to be. PHILOSOPHY Never stop searching and expanding and evolving. Fall in passionate love with the world and cultivate yourself in a way that you always have more to give. Fear nothing. Embrace change. Revel in differences. Get lost in the sky and the ocean and in other people's eyes. Know that we are all one and act accordingly. Also, laughter and dancing are always appropriate. Always.
