Travel information

I am currently

Description

I love the notion of sharing my perspectives and abilities with other people and cultures. I have strong beliefs in community, self-discipline and motivation, creativity and the power of practical experience. Nature, music, writing, sport and human connection bring me happiness, as well as many other things. We exist to learn and expand our horizons constantly, and I believe that we should always seek to find out and give to others rather than complicate things from a place of comfort. I have a very open mind and love learning.

What else ...

My hobbies are reading (Tolstoy, Garcia Marquez, Kesey, Boochani, Neff, Lee... to name a few authors), playing piano (and other instruments) and writing songs, board games, card games, the ocean and surfing, spending time with cool people, singing, dancing, philosophy and taking risks.
