The moon was high in Boquete after several drinks and someone said “Central America is going through puberty.” We laughed, but it’s true. These are delicate times.
I’m fired up on: Positivity. Action. The ability to create. Making sense. And the release of self-image.
Who I’d like to meet on my travels: Thich Nhat Hahn
Ideal place to watch the sunset: Sitting on my board on the water.
Sports I do: Surfing, soccer, tennis, bacce.
Before I die I’d like to: Live, and think much of death, and then live more and better, always with death in mind.
About me: The only thing you can count on is change.
