CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the randomness and beauty of life everyday

ABOUT ME

I'm currently travelling across the globe seeking to meet other travellers, locals, expats... get off the tourist beat and experience the 'real' side of places. I love to meet and share with new people and experience all cultures.
I'm a relaxed, happy, open minded person. I like to have fun, share knowledge, philosophy and laughter. I value new experiences and the endless beauty surrounding me.

PHILOSOPHY

"When we get out of the glass bottle of our ego and when we escape like the squirrels in the cage of our personality and get into the forest again, we shall shiver with cold and fright. But things will happen to us that we don't know ourselves. Cool, unlying life will rush in" D.H Lawrence.

"I tore myself away from the safe comfort of certainties through my love of truth - and truth rewarded me" Simone deBauvior.

"Love and do what you will" St. Augustine.

"You live longer once you realise that anytime spent unhappy is wasted" Ruth E. Renlel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So much - will fill this in eventually...

Teach, Learn, Share

Allow the form of the moment, good or bad, to be as it is. Only if you resist what happens are you at the mercy of what happens and the world will determine your happiness and unhappiness. Non resistance, non judgement and non attachment are the three aspects of true freedom and enlightened living. Be either in a state of acceptance, enjoyment or enthusiasm (Eckhart Tolle).
