ABOUT ME

I currently live in Lake Tahoe, CA. I enjoy meeting new people and having new experiences. I am also very happy spending time at home, relaxing with a home cooked meal and a good book. I have a genuine fascination and curiosity for life, especially people and varying cultures, which often brings me to different places, on the map and consciously.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. If you believe in the freedom of choice, you should extend that to everyone and everything on the universe. Finding a balance and cooperative-existence is one of my priorities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. I was sitting 5 minutes away from Machu Picchu, staring between two gorgeous, massive mountains at a river that barely sparkled and went miles and miles along. It was the smallest I have ever felt in my life and it was beautiful.
2. Staying the night in a hill tribe village in Thailand. Their lives were governed by the sun and other natural forces, and fully incorporated into their lives. That moment solidified an image in my head, of a spectrum that exists in the ways in which we can live our day to day lives and how that impacts our interpretation of the human experience.
