About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Host people to expand their minds and be hosted to expand mine.

ABOUT ME

I'm a very optimistic fun loving person who is all about personal growth and adventure.

I love extreme activities and spontaneous happenings.
Nature is where I belong.

I love to learn about new people to see how their lives have shaped them into their identities and their world view.

PHILOSOPHY

Play.
Know what is really important to you.
Go for it.
It's a good thing we die but we all die too soon.
Be grateful because being alive is valuable.
Know what is valuable to you and respect it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm very open to music but I would say the more emotional the better. Classical for beauty and grace and heart. Electronic for energy and dancing. Jazz for chilling out and talking. Hip-Hop beats for getting the party started. Almost anything for driving.
Movies: Peaceful Warrior, Fight Club, Waking Life, Lion King, Matrix, Django
Books: The Graveyard Book, Linchpin, 4 Hour Work Week, Celestine Prophesies, Alchemist, 4 agreements
Audio Books!
Lots of non-fiction for learning.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been able to create a lifestyle where I am happy. My life is my art and I am humbly proud of it. It won't last forever but I'll do my part to make it last.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a life learner of:
Growing plants and food.
Building with my hands.
Capitalism.
Piano.
Permaculutre.
Health and Fitness.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook. I can dance. I can even mend your pants.
I can lift heavy objects for any of your projects.
Please just ask and I'll help with your task.
