CURRENT MISSION

Make it happen...hold on for the ride...

ABOUT ME

I live for the outdoors and am addicted to travelling, adventure, meeting new, interesting people (why else join CSing) and taking a slightly different tack than others.

If you're a cyclist, swimmer, runner, climber, adrenaline junkie or outdoors person, we'd probably get along pretty well. But....at the same time, I enjoy kicking back, eating good food and quality drinks and music!

If you want to know more about what I do and who I am, watch my videos:

PHILOSOPHY

Get out and make sh*t happen.

"Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up and knows that it will have to outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. And, every morning in Africa a lion wakes up and knows that it will have to outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.

So, where ever you might be, it doesn't matter if you are the lion or the gazelle.

When that sun comes up, you had better be running. "

- African Proverb

To laugh often and much; to win respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics, and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeeming social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have success - Ralph Waldo Emerson

May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey

Happiness is only real when shared - Chris McCandless

Set the gearshift for the high gear of your soul - Phish

Four wheels move the body. Two move the soul - Anonymous

Enseña, aprende, comparte

At some point in one's life, one needs to:

1) Make a Blind Leap of Faith
2) Learn to deal with uncertainty, which often derails one's attempt to achieve number 1
3) Take risks
4) Unconditionally and unequivocally trust someone with your safety, emotions, affection or livelihood
5) Feel alive!

“It’s a funny thing about comin’ home. Looks the same, smells the same, feels the same. You’ll realize what’s changed is you."
