Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Do something amazing and worth remembering every single day!! And obviously see the whole, beautiful world, all the places possible (just wonder if I have enough time and money?! )
Travel with a purpose - to help, learn, teach and admire
ABOUT ME
I like to lead a nomadic lifestyle.
I like to meditate on top of the mountains, or in the middle of a busy street, surrounded by strangers running their errands, talking on their smartphones, quickly drinking their (yukk) caramel latte 'to go' and burning their lips on it... or maybe meditating and thinking good thoughts, planning their evening with friends, their next trip that is not to the supermarket, thinking of that beautiful poem they read that morning.
I am learning to play ukulele (who isn't these days...?!)
HIKING, HIKING! Mountains are my lovers
My latest favorite poem:
Roses are red
Mornings are hard
I suck at poetry
-Coffee-
PHILOSOPHY
Be happy. Be a good person.
Get wrinkles on your face from laughing

Music, Movies, and Books
A whole bunch of films, don't have a favorite one - it changes every single time, whenever I watch something new
Same with books.
Music, dependant on my mood and state of mind. Love movie soundtracks though!
