About me, eh? I grew up in a small town in LA County, California. We call the place Manhattan Beach. It was a great place to live. Next to the beach, lots of things to do, a great night life, outside of LA (but not much) and did I mention on the beach. I can identify with the sand, sun and ocean. I can't stay away too long; I mean I can't stay away from the beach for long before I feel the urge to return. In addition to the beach, manhattan was a good, wholesome and nurturing environment. But enough about where I lived; because I lived in Berkeley during school, and San Luis Obispo for a little work too.

There are so many things about myself that I don't even think about which could be mentioned here. There are so many characteristic and traits which define *me* as a person that may help *you* start to know me, but I simply don't think about them; I'm just made up of them (so many thems and thoses and thats and things) and they are intertwined inside me... So, let me talk about what I've done. Maybe my actions can help you understand me. Because really we are what we do, eat and say. I'm good at the first two... and am working at the third!

Excitement is what you make of it (In end, so is life, isn't it?). In the last few years I have been working on getting out of the country more. I have been able to backpack to spain, greece, turkey, uk, ireland, northern ireland, scotland, thailand, myanmar, malaysia, mexico, holland, belgium, and a few other places. For the rest of this year (2005) I plan to be on the road, more than I am in the states. Travel has seduced me well, and I have to follow.

During my travels I have found (but I guess I already knew) that I can be an energetic, pervasive, engaging, chaotic, confident, exothermic and thoughtful person. The people that travel, and that I seem to meet traveling, are some of the best people I have ever met. That is one of the main reasons that travel is so exciting for me. I have to back to a few of the places I have been to already and really live there in the culture and place.

Oh, I also am told that I smile too much, should get angry sometime and need to stop relaxing (I think this one came about because of the stark contrast to other people around the room; some people feel bad... but once again, who is to say). I really just need to change every part of my life, in some little or big way.

Well, that's all for now.
