CURRENT MISSION

To be happy.

ABOUT ME

I spent several years in footloose, aimless wander. Some real on-the-road type stuff. Apprenticed at an organic farm/buddhist retreat called Green Gulch Farm two years ago. It was a life changing experience, and I learned much about myself and living in a community. Am getting into the organic farming scene right now. I don't know if it's my life passion, but I figure I'm going to ride it out and see where it goes.

Love to play chess, soccer, and cribbage (does anyone even know what that is?) Enjoy running, meditating, and doing yoga. Sometimes I get a footloose kind of itch that I can only scratch by grabbing a bedroll, sleeping bag, three days of food, and heading for the hills. My boots are my most prized possession.

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever you put into life is what you'll get back out of it. We're all doing this cosmic dance for a little while, weaving impermanent tapestries as we move through life together, so we might as well be kind and have a good time.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

I saw the Grand Canyon. My friend and I walked to the lip of it, laid down on our backs, and threw our heads back over the chasm, just to freak ourselves out.

Ucz innych, ucz się sam, udostępniaj

Could talk about my limited understanding of meditation and zen buddhism. Would love to share weird and wild stories from my traveling days. Always down to get dirty in a garden, or help plan/give advice on starting an organic garden.

Czym mogę się podzielić z gospodarzami

Stories, a new perspective, and the sacred knowledge of how to properly hard-boil an egg.
