One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Maybe I should add to "philosophy" above that I think most days are amazing in some way.

But one of the most amazing travel-related things I've done, is I had the privilege of attending a 3 day talk (attended by 1000s) with the Dalai Lama, and shared a taxi daily with a group of Buddhist nuns.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about. . . gardening and food--like seriously a lot. Hit me up any time. Also some types of music (Bulgarian and American folk singing), a little about capoeira, see interests above basically.
I know A LOT about Los Angeles, CA. If you are visiting there you should for sure let me know.
