Interests

I am ALWAYS up for trying new things! I defnitely seek those types of opportunities/experiences out (especially with different cultures)! So far in my life, one of the greatest things for me- is to be unplugged. Just you, some gear and the vast wilderness in your eyes.
I wouldn't be the person I am without music. I enjoy food..many of my pictures taken throughout life have me, friends, fam- whomever eating food. And obviously, like you, I love to travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music...I enjoy world music, something with a good beat and/or lyrics. I appreciate singer-songwriters.

Books- don't read as much as I'd like to.

Movies- Usually down for a good movie, unless there is a better option outside doing something.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I enjoy being amazed by the common thing, finding the extraordinary in the ordinary. So in that respects, amazing to me is a relative term. But think I would have to say watching the aurora borealis dance across a clear dark sky in AK.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmmm...I guess I could say I can share my positive energy! I'm always up for trying new things and like to think I put a bit of happiness into the lives I come into contact with, so potentially I could teach you to put things into perspective, become centered and smile on the inside?! Sharing smiles are great. I am open to learning most anything.
