Yo!

Three years ago after realizing that I was getting a bit too pale spending my Colorado winters indoors working on my computer, I set out on a quest to warm up my Winters and put myself in places where I will be outdoors doing fires by moonlight and music year round, thusly breaking up the computer screen time with days of sunshine, moonlight hiking and celebration... you get the idea. Well, it goes without saying that I have not perfected the vision as every perfected goal brings newer cooler inspiration and more goals.

For now my life is rooted in two places, In the crisp, clear, grounding Rocky Mountains, I live in the San Luis Valley which is a nice middle point between Grand Junction/Paonia/Carbondale, Boulder/Denver, Taos/Santa Fe/Albuquerque. This is my solid first choice for the middle of summer when the festival teams are cooking up our high season fun. At the dreamy, inspirational Lago Atitlan in untamed Guatemala is where I spend the middle of winter, this is a life enriching place for me with the learning of new language, music, cultures and lots of world travelers floating through on their dreams.

When/If I decide where my spring and fall homes I will let you know and by any means come and say "Yo!" if you are in the neighborhood.

Love and light to all,
Jopa
