I enjoy simple things like listening to birds chirp and staring into space. I'm kind of a nomad, I can't seem to stay in one place for long. I love traveling to new places, meeting new faces, and expanding my perception. I like to step out of my comfort zone and do things that challenge me. I don't like being rushed or having a busy schedule. I like to stop and smell the roses, sit back and ponder the moment, and just savor every breath of life. I'm insanely curious about consciousness, life, and the nature of the universe. I love having intellectual and philosophical conversations. I'm very intrigued by eastern thought and practice yoga and meditation regularly.

PHILOSOPHY

The moment is fleeting and will never exist again, so cherish and enjoy it exactly as it is, while it is. Make the best of every situation. Take advantage of every opportunity. Experience and learn everything you can. Open yourself up to others. Share your love. Go with the flow. Let it be.

Teach, Learn, Share
