About Me

ABOUT ME

Life is a gift. One of my greatest pleasures has been travelling the world - thrive to see and experience more. A 'young apprentice' who is inspired by nature and human beings and consistently finds ways to pursue every aspect of living with equal passion.

PHILOSOPHY

"We didn't see the seven mountains ahead of us. We didn't see how they are always ahead, always calling us, always reminding us that there are more things to be done, dreams to be realised, joys to be re-discovered, promises made before birth to be fulfilled, beauty to be incarnated, and love embodied. " - Ben Okri, Songs of Enchantment

"Perhaps age must remember the clear perceptions of youth and return to the sensing of freshness, of strength, and of wonder; perhaps age needs to recall the beginnings of comprehension of mood and meaning and to rekindle an appreciation of marvelous, of being in resonance with the world. If a man nurtures his sensitive awareness of the natural world with experience and contemplation, his spirit will remain young". - Ansel Adams

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just living and experiencing how life unfolds its beauties everyday. Life is amazing and wondrous overall, and I just love every moment of it!

Teach, Learn, Share

"To believe is to perceive the miraculous. the miracle of the experience is a chance to live, laugh, love and learn. believe in living. life is a series of moments: happy, difficult, peaceful - cherish them all. believe in joy. hope is renewed in a shared laugh or a warm smile. believe in love. it costs nothing to be kind, compassionate, forgiving and charitable with our words and actions. believe in learning. being open to new opportunities amounts to a truly miraculous perception of the world. believe in you. the miracle of the dream is believing in yourself. when you believe in miracles, you discover the miraculous is all around you."
