About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am going to sell my shoes and wear holes in the soles of my feet walking on music.

ABOUT ME

I love travel, people, humor, spontaneity, music, art, theater, photography, yoga, rock-climbing, camping, canoeing, biking, snowboarding, scuba-diving, swimming, hiking, randomness, beer, netflix movies, good food and good times... if you're in to any of those things. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Don't believe everything you think.

So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure." - Alexander McCandless
