About Me

CURRENT MISSION

living/working in The beautiful andes Of Ecuador

ABOUT ME

i try to be: open-hearted, willing, daring
i am: bold and subtle, dreamer yet realist, detailed but prefer to rest simple minded.. don't avoid the harder aspects of life but don't sweat the small stuff-

inquisitor, prayer builder, doer, dreamer, laugher

PHILOSOPHY

be real, be curious, be open, be humble and positive
patience is freedom
love and learn
look into layers
challenge a simple view
deep simplicity gains in the forefront
find your nature within

life shrinks or expands according to one's courage." anais nin

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

yukon/alaska.. seeing a pack of wolves howl the night before at moonlight, shared peaceful eye contact from an old shepherd in morocco, walked around cairo recently and tahir square and saw how many blind youth are there now, not positive but very poignant,
had the honor to work with many syrian refugees and saudi women

Teach, Learn, Share

people that are kind, people that want to face a new way of being, break ideology, think the unseen, celebrate the moment
