About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Boogey 'til the cows come home

ABOUT ME

I am a chill guy that has a lot of hobbies and also a lot of passion. My true love is rock climbing. I enjoy the meditative arts including meditation, ashtanga yoga, and sometimes tai chi. I also love reading books and drinking tea, lots of tea, loose leaf tea. Enjoy being physically and mentally active and challenged. Run marathons, climb mountains, attempt to learn languages such as Tibetan. Always have high aspirations and goals such as riding my bike across Japan, climbing Cerro Torre, and Trango Tower. Both mountains inspire and scare me. Enjoy practicing jazz, flamenco, and classical guitar. Sitting in hammocks brings me utmost joy! Literature and books. Surfing, I love surfing and contemplate waves even when I live inland. It drives me nuts. Not a great cook but aspire to learn. Consider myself an intelligent and educated individual. Enjoy philosophy and existentialist themes, literature and films. Looking for positive relationships and people to share beautiful adventures with.

PHILOSOPHY

Be mindful and compassionate, respect for the Earth and all living things.
