Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To travel, meet cool people, party, experience, learn, grow wise, most of all enjoy and have fun. LIVE IN THE MOMENT
ABOUT ME
I am a student of life. I love to travel and meet with local people and try to experience what they experience. I believe that meeting new people is essential to growing wise. I guess you can say I am a bit of a nerd, but I know definately know how to have fun. I believe in living in the moment. I have been in the martial arts for 14 yrs and have learned a lot about living in the moment from my teacher as well as from other sources. I love to go out and party at night. During the day I am all about some good food and maybe a museum or show. I love people and their various forms of expression.
PHILOSOPHY
"Be like water my friend"-Bruce Lee
"Be in the Moment"- Mestre Lazaro (my capoeira instructor for the last 13 yrs)
