Hello!

Well, it's been a little while since I've joined Zaads, but I'm finally getting around to participating. Better late then never right? So, how about a little introduction for all you other Zaadsters. Besides what you see on my profile, anyway. I'm a recent relocatee to Portland, OR - a beautiful city with the most fantastic cheap veggo food. Before Portland, I was living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where I was eating lots of food, sleeping too much, zooming around on my Honda Dream, teaching occassionally and volunteering with some civil society organisations from Burma. I had breif two months in Malaysia working with the Chin Refugee Committee. Now that I'm back in the lap of luxury, I've been making up for lost kitchen time by cooking up a storm, and also working a little bit. I've been trying to get a few changing the world projects off the ground - the biggest one right now being the Burma Solidarity Network, which I'll probably post a little bit more on later. I'm hoping to find a few like-minded people here on Zaads who are willing and able to help out and get involved. (The short description for those who don't want to click out is that the Burma Solidarity Network is a dynamic online community for Burma activists around the world.) So that's about it for the intro - hopefully I'll get to browsing around the pods and such here soon! It's great to meet you!
