CURRENT MISSION

As I am incapable of planning for than 3 months in advance, my cuirrent missions is to see somre more of the world and have an adventure or two which may or may not involve escapades on a motorbike.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty laid back person who likes to have new experiences and meet new people. This is probably why I love traveling so much. I used to live in Chile where I worked as a preschool teacher and I have traveled through most of South America. I've also lived in London and visited Italy, France, India, China, Turkey, Mexico, and Greece (where I worked on an olive farm). I love to write and was once pretty into theater as well. I'm also love having my whole world stuffed into a 65L bag. I'm pretty low maintenance and like a good hike through some mountains and great beer. There's more, of course. But enough about me.

PHILOSOPHY

It's not hard to be a kind person.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I once bribed a guard in La Paz, Bolivia to let me inside the city prison. I was locked in with a prisoner for an hour who was appointed to "take care" of me. But he was a beautiful man who recited poems he had written from memory and gave me one when I left.

教，学，和分享

I'm a great editor. I've helped a lot of people hone their writing skills. I can talk about books all day.
I'm also a pretty good cook and have some great recipes that are easy to learn.

I would love to learn more about sustainable farming, slow food, and outdoor skills.
