About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying My Life in Europe

ABOUT ME

Ex-pat Californian in Catalunya. I've never been one to conform, and authority and me don't get along so well. As Thoreau would say, I march to the beat of a different drummer.

PHILOSOPHY

Yesterday is gone, and tomorrow might not come, so love what you have today.
