About Me

ABOUT ME

I usually live very happily in Davis, CA. It is a flat area in the center of California. The town is known for lots of bike riders. Life is quiet and sweet there - we work very close to home and walk or cycle nearly everywhere we go. Saturday mornings and Wednesday evenings we ride to the local farmer's market to buy whatever we need that we don't grow ourselves. I also meditate daily and have been traveling around the world for the last year.
