About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find new balance and remember the important stuff

ABOUT ME

I remember numbers. Numbers I have no use for anymore. I don't know why.
I believe that people are good.
I'm not a picky eater. I am a slow eater.
I like puzzles and riddles. Also board games.
I believe a better world is possible.
I've never broken a bone in my body.
I'm generally pretty indecisive.
I love salvaging old and used things.
I like climbing trees (even put it on my resume)
I hope it takes me much more time and space than will fit in this box to tell you all about me.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live.

Also, in books/movies/life, you never really seem to know what was really going on until the end. So don't stress too hard trying to figure everything out at the beginning. Enjoy the journey - it'll all make sense in the end ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camping at the snow line in the Himalayas.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you a bit about wind and solar energy.
I'm always keen to learn new and interesting things - particularly interested in anything anyone knows about plants/gardening and/or how the brain works.
