About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live a bigger life than the present.

ABOUT ME

Generous, quirky, non-conformist, good cook, easily bored by the mundane, thrives on stimulating conversation and people, cant get enough of travel and new experiences, offbeat dry sense of humour, loves animals, going on long drives to nowhere, into nature and environment, doesn't like narrowminded or negative people,gets excited by a beautiful sunset & the smell of the ocean, wordsmith, extremely independent, gives without expecting anything in return.

PHILOSOPHY

It changes as my own belief system and views are challenged. Simply put, do good to others, even if they dont deserve it. Hold onto material things with open hands. It ain't necessarily so.
