About me:
A few quotes I've tried to live by (paraphrased really): "It's better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done." "Travel invitations are like dancing lessons from God." "The truth will set you free." "Your shoes should feel good on your feet from the start. Next time you buy new shoes, take your feet with you." "If you want peace, work for justice." "I only run when I'm in danger or they're giving stuff away for free."Who I'd like to meet:
old friends, new friends, people who ride bikes, people who wanna ride bikes, open-minded & thoughtful peopleDetails
