the giant buddha in chengdu is breathtaking

the colosseum is more worth it than they tell you

Teach, Learn, Share

i am most concerned with living my life in a way that supports and promotes social justice and environmental sustainability. too many people focus on material wealth when life is about experiences, friends, travel. i have been to five continents and have made meaningful relationships in all of them. i plan to have conquered all seven by the time i'm forty (do relationships with penguins count?)
