ABOUT ME

I was once a traveler across distant lands, now I'm learning to travel in whatever form that traveling takes place.

PHILOSOPHY

Stolen from Sandor Katz: "Our perfection lies within our imperfection"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Glacier National Park, Montana. Chief Mountain Trail. Bushwacked up the side of Pyramid Peak with my friend Nick- and then we ran down the side of the mountain together a la Jack Kerouac and Gary Snyder in the Dharma Bums.
