One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sacred after-hours ritual in Machu Picchu with a Peruvian shaman.

Visiting the temples and pyramids of Egypt.

Scuba diving in Bonaire and the Bahamas.

DJing for an amazing ecstatic dance community in Portland, Oregon.

I have also swam with a pod of wild dolphins and sea turtles on the Big Island and walked into a rainbow on a magical day by the river one time with a special friend.

Staying as open as I can through thick and thin.
