About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet totally wicked cool folks to build our own extended family!

ABOUT ME

Like computers, renaissance faires, music, burners, life, the universe.... everything :)
The most conservative liberal or liberal conservative you will meet. I enjoy seeing other perspectives and sharing my own, which is usually way off expectations and definitely outside the norm.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is meant to be experienced!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was homeless and literally lived on the beach. I now hold multiple degrees and live a few blocks from the beach :)
While I haven't seen it all, I have seen very much and it is ALL amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

1) There is no 'normal' required way to view the world. 2) Boxes are a construct either of our own making or inherited from others. They are as absolute and immutable as we want them to be. No thought is ever stuck inside one.
3) Learn to understand others from their own perspective, not your own.
4) Do not be offended by others' views or actions because you do not understand.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A nice place to stay with a hot tub :)
A couple guest passes to the Monterey Aquarium
