CURRENT MISSION

I am traveling the globe, journaling lots and visualizing a future of creative wellness cultivation

ABOUT ME

I am an adventurer. The myriad of places I have lived in and the multitude of experiences that I have had have come together to create the eclectic, eccentric, colorful person that is me. I see life as a rich human experience. I seek to be positive, cultivate meaningful relationships, and find new was to constantly evolve myself spiritually and mentally.

PHILOSOPHY

Here are some quotes which resonate with me-

"The richest man is not he who has the most, but he who needs the least" - Gandhi

"We must be the change we wish to see in the world" - Gandhi

"Fortune favors the bold" - Virgil

"Visualize, don't analyze" - my parents

"A lovely view of heaven, but I'd rather be with you" - Jerry Garcia

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined. Right now I am traveling and don't have a couch to offer. But for sure, my couch will be available when I do. Actually, It will be a set of very comfortable cushions. I like to sit on the floor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed on couches every now and then. It's been mostly positive. I find the important thing when staying in one's home is to tread lightly and be a channel of positive energy.

Interests

I love many things include, being outside, yoga, cooking, good conversation, philosophy, family, travel, social responsibility, organic living, music, being silly, being happy, colors, emotions, thoughts, feelings, etc...

Music, Movies, and Books

Recently read "Shantaram" by Gregory David Turner - awesome ! I love the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "Da Vinci Code", Social studies such as written by Noam Chomsky. Musically, I'm a huge Buddha Bar fan, as well as a lover of acoustic string music, reggae, funk, folk, traditional, latin, and anything good ! I've never owned a television.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well my trip to Homer, Alaska in 2004 was awesome ! I met up with Mikey at the Salty Dawg Saloon on the Homer spit after driving 2500 miles over three days. Fast forward two days and we're embarking a a nine day kayaking trip around Kachemak Bay. Otters, Seals, Sea Lions by the hundreds; Mountain goats; baby bears play fighting on the beaches; A humpback whale surfacing a mere 100 feet away in the water; catching salmon and rockfish for dinner; mussels off the rocks; blue water; massive rocks of mountains; a sun that almost never sets; bliss.......

Teach, Learn, Share

Our greatest lesson is the experience of our own lives. In order to learn, we must first live.
