AS OF MARCH 2015:
I am setting out on foot from my home in Lansing, Michigan and walking westward across the continental United States, towards Oregon. Depending on where the wind takes me, it may be a very long time before I get there (I am not averse to detours).

I am sure I will meet many wonderful people along the way. Maybe you'll be one of them!

CURRENT MISSION

To synergize the world

ABOUT ME

Self-improvement junkie. All about transformation, leaving behind self-limiting beliefs, creating bold new possibilities. Love me some empowerment. Adore making a difference.

PHILOSOPHY

1. With an eye for an eye, the whole world goes blind (Gandhi). Revenge is overrated.

2. Everyone is doing the best they can in any given moment, within the limitations of their beliefs. Good thing to remember.

3. Competition is boring. Let's make a world where everyone wins.

Which brings me to...

4. Just because something has been one way for thousands of years doesn't mean it always has to stay the same.

Dare to dream of new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
