CURRENT MISSION

couch-surf my way through Texas, and back.

ABOUT ME

I work from home, so whenever I have a chance, I like to go outside of my house and just be outdoor, it keeps me sane. I love going to new places, and trying out different kinds of food... but then again, who doesn't?

I'm about to start my very first solo road trip. I'm a bit scared but it's something I've been wanting to do for a long time, and I finally just found the courage to do it. I think more than just traveling, this is gonna be a tiny first step for me to be brave enough to try accomplish all the other things I want to do in my life.

PHILOSOPHY

I don’t mind being how I am right now, but, I’d rather take my chances, and be awesome and great, rather than just be safe.

Interests

When I'm not tinkering in front of my computer, I take my bike to the beach and go for a ride. I also hike to random places around LA and take pictures of mundane things in my life. I keep a photo blog to keep myself motivated to take pictures, because I don't ever want to stop.

I also never stop thinking about food and making food. I bake and learn how to cook on my spare time. I think about dinner as I'm preparing my lunch. It's an obsession.

Oh, and rice, I love rice.

Teach, Learn, Share

This isn't exactly a critical life skill to most people, but I can teach you how to make Molten Chocolate Mousse Cups, they're ridiculously delicious, and flippin' easy to make.
