About Me

CURRENT MISSION
"The freedom and simple beauty is too good to pass up... I now walk! Into the wild" [Into the wild]

ABOUT ME
Hey. Could we do that again? I know we haven't met, but I don't want to be an ant. You know? I mean, it's like we go through life with our antennas bouncing off one another, continuously on ant autopilot, with nothing really human required of us. [Waking Life]

PHILOSOPHY
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
