Im posted in Astoria, Oregon at least until the new year and looking to connect with the community. Exploring what’s next, considering some time in Portland and/or buying a tiny trailer for me and my dog tangerine to cruise towards México in. Im open to stopovers, detours and complete itinerary changes along the way. Enjoying the adventure.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have chased manatees in a canoe, stood eye to eye with some of the world's rarest birds, paddled through a sea of glowing water, and summoned owls with only my voice. Pretty freaking magical. I am extremely blessed.

Teach, Learn, Share

The birds have dissolved in the sky,
And the last remaining clouds have faded away,
We sit together the mountain and me,
Until only the mountain remains ---Li Po
