About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore and immerse in everything California and the Pacific Northwest

ABOUT ME

Ever since I became Vegan, I smile at challenges that life throws my way.
I like intelligent conversations, immersing into different cultures, understanding perspectives, good food, world cinema, music, people watching, reading, sitcoms, philosophy and having fun in the weirdest of situations and places. I am rarely ever bored. I love to meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Leave the world the way I found it (if not better). Minimalist, sustainable living.
