CURRENT MISSION

Learn to be present in the moment and to be grateful for all the fun and wonder life holds.

ABOUT ME

I have traveled to 49 states and 18 foreign countries, including having spent a half-year backpacking around S.E. Asia. Obviously, I love to travel. I'm also into gardening, about half flowers and half veggies. (I make a GREAT salad, with my own organically grown greens!). I am a Reiki master and am very much interested in alternative healing techniques & other energy-related topics. I live well on a minimal income. I don't own a lot of things because I'd rather spend my money having adventures than toys.

PHILOSOPHY

Be grateful, be glad, have fun.

Música, películas y libros

I like music that doesn't blare at me. I'm especially fond of songs in the traditional or folk genres. I like movies that are not predictable, such as "Winter's Bones" and "Get Low." I no longer have time to read fiction as most of my reading relates to massage therapy or energywork practices. I also like learning about environmental issues and spiritual practices such as Taoism and shamanism.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I wrote, directed and edited 2 documentaries, one of which was widely broadcast on TV throughout Canada and the U.S. Both films won one or more film fest awards.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I have been a licensed massage therapist and a Reiki practitioner at the master level for over a decade. I am willing to give a free massage or Reiki treatment to anyone who hosts me. I also have a pretty good supply of funny jokes to share.
