Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
CURRENTLY going through an existential shift in consciousness as well as a physical shift in trying to figure out where/what I want to do with this life. Currently traveling via truck and and finding cool spots to sleep and ponder life. Although sometimes a nice couch or bed and shower is needed :P
ABOUT ME
I prefer the mysterious unpredictability of life and would much prefer the unknown to the known and predictable. Simplicity is key... but not too much.Learning the hard way can be the best way.I live a second life while asleep. I often find myself craving change. I'm learning to be more open and honest with myself and others.To not be so shy.To dance in front of a crowd. To be as genuine and kind as I can. To be an open-minded, well-rounded, grounded, heart-centered, loving human being!
PHILOSOPHY
Thoughts and feelings create reality. So I try to keep a positive outlook on life and let whatever happens happen. Just trying to ride the waves of life and embrace the letting go of that which is done.

I ran the LA marathon in 2008.
Survived Burning Man.
I've seen a lot of the United States.
My favorites so far, though, are Seattle, Alaska, and Maine.
