Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
To live beautifully
ABOUT ME
Occasionally I like to be serious, but I prefer laughter. I enjoy wilderness backpacking and meaningful conversations about philosophy, religion and all the good ideas that make life worth living. I have a burning passion for spicy Thai food (indeed, for all rich and flavourful foods-- yum!) I like learning about people, about where they've come from, where they're going and all the sites they've seen along the way.
PHILOSOPHY
"If you have two loaves of bread, give one to the poor. Sell the other and buy hyacinths to feed your soul." -Hindi Proverb

Algo increíble que he hecho
I've done a fair share of traveling around Africa, North, South and Central America, Europe, Central Asia and India.
A few crazy experiences:

-Getting stranded (happily, with two friends) in the Kyrgyzstan desert
-Taking an Indian sleeper train in the wrong direction and waking up in Guwahati instead of Kolkata
