CURRENT MISSION

To experience life from as many viewpoints and ways as possible

ABOUT ME

I'd characterize myself as a glutton for new things. Mostly energetic, with small spurts of recharge time. But for the most time, I'm moving from the time I get up until I head to bed. There's no couch potato in me. I don't really watch TV unless someone makes me.

PHILOSOPHY

Live with a sense of responsibility balanced with a willingness to lose it all and start over from scratch. Life is a verb. Be verbose!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Leaping down a sand dune in the Sahara desert has to be one of the most amazing things I've done lately. The terrain is so amazingly different than what I grew up with, and the thought that there are MOUNTAINS of orange sand to play in is very zween.

A butterfly is neither a butter, nor a fly. Discuss.
