Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
To build a true community where we can be ourselves and be ok...
ABOUT ME
I've had some seemingly random but all beautiful experiences: I've bicycled across the U.S., worked in different national parks, vclunteered in a wilderness trails crew, was a wildland firefighter, taught English in Japan, joined AmeriCorps for a year teaching job development to newly-resettled refugees from Burma, was intensely involved with the local community gardening scene in San Diego, WWOOFed on the Big Island in Hawaii and decided to live in Utah for now. These days, I'm learning graphic/web design and becoming an awesome climber! My next big adventure is backpacking the PCT.
PHILOSOPHY
"For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again." - Benjamin Button
"I am not a logician. I am an existentialist. I believe in this meaningless, beautiful chaos of existence, and I am ready to go with it wherever it leads." -Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
"We are here to awaken to the illusion of our separateness." -Thich Nhat Hanh
