CURRENT MISSION

Planning to tour Europe come this summer (07)

ABOUT ME

Most of my identity has been formed through radical youth empowerment conferences and other loving and open communities. I attempt to be humble and understanding, and not take myself too seriously. I hope to be self-sufficient in most of the things I do, and love skill-sharing.

PHILOSOPHY

"Not all who wander are lost."
-J.R.R. Tolkien

And, of course, my favorite quote by Rilke:
"Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day. " -Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Intereses

My interests balance between a fascination of modern technologies and an appreciation of simple lifestyles. Sustainable technologies, Do-It-Yourself culture, social organizational structures, etc.
My less than noble interests include obscure references (ie: George Lucas referencing Tolkien referencing the New Testament), Boggle, strategy games and street art.

I'm also fond of baking and dessert making.
