我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Hiked the Chilkoot Trail (with the lovely Gabrielle from Australia -- who I met hosting through couchsurfing), biked from Haines, AK through the Yukon Territory into the interior of AK. Worked on the trail along Troublesome Creek in Denali State park for 40 days during the world flood in 30 years (while living backcountry). Attended Off the Mat and into the World training in California. Lived on a sailboat in a rainforest in Alaska for a winter. Woke up this morning and was healthy, happy and in San Francisco!
