About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4I'm a bit concerned about the future of this planet and do what I can to make it better.I'm attracted to things that scare me...I like to look closely at my fears to see what lies beneath...this is more easy to do in the physical world of sudden impact, but harder in the world of emotion and spirit. I've learned a lot on my journeys and learn more every day. Now I find myself wondering what to do with this knowledge...time to start sharing it more...teach the kids! Now treading a fine line between dreams, crazy reality, soul, detachment, energy in all it's forms, a twisted sense of humor, a puppet body, an incessant mind, and an amazing world to explore. Born in Mexico, raised in So Cal at the beach, spent years snowboarding in the mtns,then realized how much I missed the ocean, got heavy into sailing and ended up here in Hawaii 12 years ago. Now I'm living in the tiny town of Hawi with an awesome girl and her 8 yr old son. We sometimes wish we had more of a social life here but I really enjoy all the outdoor activities. I love traveling around this world and having new experiences...meeting new people. I've had a lifelong love affair with the ocean...surfing, sailing, diving and more recently been loving flying my paraglider...floating in the air like in my dreams with occasional adrenalin to keep it real...it's all about balance!

My Interests

Surfing, paragliding, sailing, motorcycles, free-diving, snowboarding, great sex, hunting meat and growing fruits, green energy/ sun power, exploring everywhere - including the mind, human nature and our place in the universe,designing and building boats, surfboards, houses, furniture, solar systems and everything else...

I'd like to meet:

Interesting and fun people who like to think and still wanna learn. People with something to teach me. Freaks and outcasts and beautiful people too. People into adventure anywhere who don't take themselves too seriously and like to laugh 'till you wet yourself. Maybe some good folks here on the Big Island to hang with. Hit me up!

Music:

Music with a kickin' beat and performed by people that mean it. From Mozart to Led Zep to Eminem to Marley and everything in between.

Movies:

The Game, Natural Born Killers, U-turn, Baraka, Waking Life, Vanilla Sky, Contact,An Inconvenient Truth, Who Killed the Electric Car?, Farenheit911... movies that change you and make you feel something. Also funny shit like Will Farrel stufff or A Fish Called Wanda, Scarey Movie etc....nothing beats a good laugh!

Television:

Simpsons or South Park or Family Guy or Travel channel or thought provoking satirical irreverent programs that make you laugh hard. I now generally avoid TV as I find the advertising terrifying...do people realize what that shit does to them?

I just got out of the water...went to spear a few fish for dinner. I park and bushwhack-scramble down the cliffs, find a decent spot, lava shelf to enter the ocean and suit up and slide into the cool ...
