About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live.

ABOUT ME

Meet me and you will understand.

PHILOSOPHY

Always keep an open mind and welcome new experiences. Experience is the key to knowledge. Knowledge is the key to enlightenment.
Without an open mind you can never discover who you truly are; you are set in a way that is conditioned.

I don't want to be conditioned to live or feel a certain way. I just want to be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing things are always happening! Most recently in my travels to France a few friends and I found ourselves, after some Chouchen, whiskey, and cheese, in the middle of the woods at 3am. Where we arrived at le château de Montlhéry. Left in ruins, we were able to make it over the brick wall, climb over the bridge, and to the top of one of the turrets. I had never seen anything like it.
