ABOUT ME

I am an avid surfer, skater, and musician who loves meeting new people and going on random adventures. I love hiking in the forest, climbing trees, biking, swimming, art, beer, wine, sunny days, people who are friendly, singing, coffee, exploring, things of that nature. I am very interested in meeting people from other places and cultures that are foreign to me. Also sharing ideas, customs, and new exciting experiences with others are among my interests. I like to live each day to its fullest, taking advantage of every moment. Life is a wonderful blessing, so being active, trying new things, learning and growing with and from others is a must. I play music every day, composing, playing with friends, performing for school and for fun. Music is my passion in life, it allows me to express my ideas and emotions freely, which is very fulfilling. I like playing things by ear, and always having a positive outlook on any situation. Spontaneity is an amazing thing you should try it! haha
I love exchanging stories with people and sharing ideas with people who have a lot of interesting and original things to say. You only have one chance to enjoy this life, so you better be doing what you love and follow your dreams. I try to live this way, and it works out great! haha. There is so much to say. If I could summarize my outlook on life with one short quote it would be this one.
"....When you travel a path and note that another path breaks away to one side at, say, a 30-degree angle, and then later another path branches away to the same side at a broader angle, say 45 degrees, and another path later at 90 degrees, you begin to understand that there's some point over there that all the paths lead to and that a lot of people have found it worthwhile to go that way, and you begin to wonder out of curiosity if perhaps that isn't the way you should go too."
Robert Pirsig, From The Art of Zen and Motorcycle Maintenance
