About Me

CURRENT MISSION

try to find a normal job and live a normal life and not just leave again...

ABOUT ME

I decided to be a nurse when I was on the camino a few years ago. Now I am about to be a nurse and I want to be a journalist, I need to go back to the camino and have a good think.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to enjoy each and every moment as if it might be my last. This is starting to catch up on me though because one day I might want to have money saved up, a house, a car or something else, but for now I would rather live day to day. I place little value on objects. this doesn't mean I dont splurge, but I don't become emotionally attached to THINGS...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two years ago I sat on top of Mount Merapi in Indonesia at 3 in the morning and peered deep down into the mouth of the volcano. I could see the red lava down below, and took a nap crouched on a hole releasing warm air from the lava. I awoke to see the sunrise and the darkness turned into one of the most beautiful sites I have ever seen. That volcano erupted last year and killed hundreds of nearby villagers....

Teach, Learn, Share

-conversation, I love to talk with other great people about more than just the best club in town or the best place to get wasted. BUt I like to do this nonetheless...
