CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to experience as much as I can in as many places as I can. I have yet to see the Panama Canal and go to South America, see India and Southeast Asia.

ABOUT ME

I believe that traveling is the best education. Learning how to surf changed my life.
and one of my favorite mottos is:

Quit your job.
Buy a ticket.
Get a tan.
Fall in love.
Never return.

Do yoga. Eat Real Food. Travel. Love. Enjoy life with good friends. and good wine.

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and go do that. Because what the world needs is people that have come alive." --Howard Thurman

"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye."
--Antoine de Saint Exupery

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First time I stood up on a wave.

First time I jumped and flew while kiteboarding.

Being at an incredibly high energy concert/game/event surrounded by thousands of amped up people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about Vegan Cooking and Kombucha Brewing.
I'm also a good watcher of sunsets and other beautiful moments. I can lead a yoga class, teach some basics about surfing and demonstrate how to kiteboard.
I have been a language teacher, a swim instructor, a scuba instructor.
Teaching has always been my passion.
