Enrolled in the school of life, traveling till I have to do something else. I'm a self taught cook, musician, mechanic and graphic designer. True nerd and proud of it. I read Wikipedia for fun. I'll happily have a serious political conversation, or just as happily get weird and silly and laugh.

Other than traveling and learning, my passion is for sustainable living through engineering and science. I'd love to work in renewable energy, build electric cars and tiny efficient useful homes, and create sustainable regenerative farming systems. I'm a big believer in the DIY spirit, and that while school is great, there's nothing you can't learn to do yourself with the power of the internet (or even your local library).
