ABOUT ME

Hello All!

So far, nothing but amazing results with this website, everyone helping each other out, I couldn't think of a more mutually beneficial arrangement :)

Currently, I am in the process of searching out a CSing spot for NYC, notoriously one of the most difficult places to find a couch, so wish me luck!

When I am not traveling to NYC (which is all of the time, considering this will be my first trip there) I am living in Vancouver BC, its a great city and my life here for the past 6 years or so has been interesting, I've gotten to do a lot of what I wanted to do in terms of design and also within the realm of non-profit. I guess I am like a lot of other people out there, when I say that there isn't really a clear path set for the things I would like to do, so sometimes it is a little slow going, but that's ok, eventually stuff comes together.
For me, traveling is a way of speeding up the process. I get the inspiration and clarity I need to come back here and re-focus on what I need to do, to get to where I need to be.

hmmm I'm updating this portion of my profile and I hope I'm not going off on to much of a tangent...I am a curious person, I like to challenge people and for them to challenge me, not always though, sometimes you just want to be easy and quiet. I want to do special things in my life time and feel I have already done a few.

I love to cook. I love to read (I'll read anything, as long as its good) I'm starting to become a better gardener, so that's exciting.

When I get older, like really old, I would like to have a retirement farm for old cats and dogs.

PHILOSOPHY

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook and will do it for you if you let me. If you want to learn/help, great! If not, you can be in charge of music.

I can stay calm when things are going terribly wrong, I think my friends appreciate this quality in me :) I think when they see me not making a big deal about something and realizing that it will pass just like everything does, they feel inspired to not let the hard times get them down...

I'm also starting to garden, so I could help with that or share my limited knowledge...
