I adore Music especially live, Writing, Reading, Bike Rides, Adventure, Long empty stretches of road with no speed limits, FOOD, Golf, shoes, long deep conversations with close friends, chats with mom, a good sunday sermon, the coast. There are many things i like, but i also like to be still and keep it simple too.

My World Visitor Map!

I live in Bournemouth, England with my wonderful partner Carlo. I was born and raised in Vancouver, Canada, but i'm a mix of Dutch/German/Indonesian blood. The coast has always been my home, as i have also lived in Hawaii, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, and after 2 years of London i'm on the south coast of the UK. I consider myself a Global Citizen.

I was born 7/7/77, a cancerian that doesn't fit the profile.

In Feb 1999, I was on Oprah. Yep seriously.

One person can make all the difference.

Music:

Music is my drug, it makes me high, it's the key to the soul and unlocks whatever emotion that needs to be expressed. It makes me laugh, dance, cry, shout, and all the extreme feelings that make you feel alive. I have always been a MASSIVE Pet Shop Boys fan!

Here's the music video i was in where i played a rap ho :)

Movies:

Adventure movies, documentaries on health and quantam physics, pixar animation, and anything with Angelina Jolie.

Television:

Heroes, 24, Prison Break, Medium, Grey's Anatomy, Ramsey's Kitchen Nitemares and London cooking shows, BBC Planet Earth and BBC's Alternative Medicine. Basically anything on BBC rules.

Books:

The Bible, The Dammapada, anything by Thich Nhat Hanh and Dalai Lama, Dr. Emoto Masuru, Wayne Dyer, Echart Tolle, Deepach Choprah are my favorites. The Encycopedia of Natural Healing, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Massive Change by Bruce Mau and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nightime.

Heroes:

My heroes are those who have inspired me to dream and focus on making that a reality. Anyone who can inspire is a hero, as that kind of positive influence will impact a life. These are just a few who have impacted mine:
