Happy New Year! (a summary of 2005)

Hi Guys! Happy New Year to everyone :)

Jesus - where has the time gone? But at the same time, 2005 felt like the year that lasted forever.

My god, looking back, it's been such a crazy time. Came back from a surf trip and Peru, and right off the get go, started making things happen as a full time yoga instructor. Taught everywhere, and anywhere it seemed just to make ends meet... and along the way, met so many beautiful and kind souls. And just 6 months later - was established!

Enjoyed a fantastic year with my girlfriend Hilary, and honestly, I'm so fortunate! Wow!

In between hanging out Hil and the greatest circle of friends that I could possibly ask for (you all know who you are), I got it into my head to start studying again, and somehow, pulled off, amidst the business of working, a writing of the MCAT. And right after that epic, found myself moving to Toronto to be with Hil. A leap of faith, moving to a big place, and scratching out a life over again. Back home, I was lion, but here - I'm a cub... but I'll be roaring soon enough.

And here I've been, these past three months - enjoying the adventure of Canada's biggest city. Navigating the ins and outs, learning to live on less (and less and less), yet somehow, with Hil, our lives are rich and full. The magic of simplicity.

Well - there it is, 2005 in a nutshell. A year of living!
