One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

2 year motorcycle (Royal Enfield) tour in India from the southern most tip Kanniyakumari to the Northern most point Sikkim, Darjeeling and Nepal. Bunjee jump over the Bhote Khosi River border of Nepal and Tibet (China). Traveled by mountain bike from Netherlands to Hungary in less than thirteen days 1500 kilometers. 300 kilometers from Wien to Kapasmero, Hungary. Surfed Hookipa, Hawaii, Taught at (Tibetan Buddhist) Denzong Choeling Padma Academy in Sikkim (near Pemayangtse moastery) to Bhutia and Lepcha tribal children. Seen Kanchenjunga mountain at sunrise. lived in remote tribal fishing villages in India. Lived with snake charmers in Pattaya, Orissa, Survived a near death experiece while almost drowning in Jagganath Puri, Orissa, India. Whale watching from the middle of the pacific ocean of Maui sitting on a wave runner. Finding hidden waterfalls in Costa Rica.
Hiking Haleakala crater in Maui. Taking care of an orphaned baby monkey in Costa Rica. Traveled with Natha Aghoris in India. Met a living Buddha boy whom I will always remeber, Dawa Dorjee, a tribal child in Sikkim... Worked on a sail boat (Perini Navi) and traveled the Aegean. Stayed in the cave of Pythagoras in Samos. Training horseback archery in Hungary and many things to vast to mention here.

The most amazing thing is that we continue to breathe in and out and that one day this action just stops. Life is amazing if truly lived! Life force is the most incredible mystery and should not be wasted sitting in front of a television or living another persons dream.

Teach, Learn, Share

If one wants to be extraordinary, one should surround themselves with extraordinary people and choose the extraordinary experience. Mediocrity is for the timid. Be 'as bold as love' and get experienced...
