About Me

CURRENT MISSION

observe. learn.

ABOUT ME

Love outdoors: climbing/hiking/biking/running in faraway places. Contemplative, relaxed but I do push myself hard when I'm outside. Like: Conversation. Wine. Coffee. Road trips. The New Yorker. I'm not into recreational drugs, clubbing, or smoking.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop (learning, exploring, thinking). Except to sleep.. sleep is good.

Interests

The outdoors. Travel, of course, from climbing mountains to exploring the grimy alleyways of the biggest cities. Also photography, the arts, symphony, and sitting in cafes. Sitting in cafes counts as adventure if the coffee is good.
