ABOUT ME

Hello . . A very eclectic, cool group of people here . . I look forward to getting to know as many of you as possible during my global treks . .

I'm an excellent guest and host (certified by Sharon and Ozzy Ozborne) - I adapt easily to most situations and practice consideration. Love dry wit, humor of it all (esp most things BBC) - very passionate and endlessly curious; thrive on meeting new people, checking out fab food, art, culture, all that is interesting and different. A little crazy (according to the doctors, not quite certifiable), definitely seek my own path while living the best life possible, giving back along the way .

Music and travel are always a good idea (clearly), can't get enough of either . .life moves quickly, important to appreciate the moment, go for it while doing+ seeing it all as a thoughtful, open person.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live . . carpae diem (overused yet true), be audacious, kind, loving, respectful, never stop having fun.

Music, Movies, and Books

Davis, Muse, Ella, Clapton, Bee Gees (love the disco ball chez moi), authors DH Lawrence, Collette, Isabelle Allende . . fascinated by George Soros . .

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many to select from, I've been very fortunate! My recent (solo) trip to SE Asia was fascinating and immensely rewarding . . planning my next jaunt back . . my solo trip to Italy was breathtaking on all fronts - the art/architecture/culture/food/the look + feel of it all overloaded my senses and invaded me . . my IOTB (Italy and Indonesia on the brain) condition continues to consume me . .planning to check out all the other places on the list . .
