About Me

i like the in between times.

My Interests

the pursuit of bravery and all the bold action it requires. daydreaming. doing. books with good words. epiphanies. Kyoto. echoes. flutes, vibraphones, organs, gamelan, harmoniums, tambouras. birch and willow trees. branches brushing rivers. vibrant corners. hiking with hummingbirds. surreal experiences at day or night. listening to people hum. feeling the tap of a stranger's foot on the leg of my chair. freakout action. exploding possibilities. knowing enough to know. subtleties and shades. great big thoughts and the gradients of them. shaking the shimmer, moving the mountain and simmering the stew. making nutrasweet love to you (not you) you. being ultra in the moment.

I'd like to meet:

you. hi! mission accomplished.
