The inner workings...

About Me

Hmmmmm, I'm a bit of a nomad. I'd love to drive from here to the tip of South America someday. I love to read and dance. I love to go to parties and meet new people. I love the sun. I wish it were always 90 degrees and humid - like skin temperature. That is perfect to me. I wish we all lived a much simpler existence with our roots really planted in the soil. I don't know how we got so out of whack in the past century. Sure I'm thankful for many of the machines that technology has bestowed upon us, but why when we say they are going to make our lives easier - actually make us more stuck to the grind?
I'm a vegetarian, which means I don't eat anything with eyes, except potatoes. That's it for now. Feel free to ask more. Although if I'm offline for awhile, just assume I'm traveling somewhere and enjoying not being online for awhile ;)Oh, and check out my documentary hummingbird www.hummingbirdmovie.com
Cheers!

My Interests

Reading, traveling, socializing, discovering, playing, walking, laughing, dancing

I'd like to meet:

People are often amazed at the range of my friends. I see the good in most people. And I love it when people have the courage to really be themselves.

Music:

brazilian, but most anything in the right mood

Movies:

In the Name of the Father, Best in Show, Amelie, In America, Documentaries, In the Mood for Love, films that make you think, feel and question or else laugh your ass off.

Television:

Television is for movie watching almost exclusively, although I have admittedly started to watch Grey's Anatomy.

Books:

The Alchemist, Eleven Minutes, Veronika Decides to Die, The Zahir - okay, anything by Paulo Coelho. He must be the most inspirational writer today. Also love books that are social criticism or wake you up to the problems of the world around us such as Our Stolen Future or Overdo$ed America. And then there is always a good philosophy book, especially loved Schopenhauer and Hume for some reason.

Heroes:

People who stand up to abusive authority. People who don't lie to themselves or to others.

My Blog

I guess it's time to dive in.

I love to rant and send political emails to all my friends - sorry if it annoys any of you ;) So now that I am getting used to this whole online thing, I may as well try this blog thing.I'm so sick o...
