About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Taking a look

ABOUT ME

Maybe I read too much Tintin as child or something so I've had the travel bug as long as I can remember. Otherwise I enjoy learning languages (reading Tradiational Chinese is my current brain tease) and reading.

I am very curious and have a really varied interests - and love to chat about international travel, economics, culture, psychology, politics, cross cultural romance, and many other topics.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to its fullest

Interests

I love to travel both to visit different cultures or natural beauty. Luckily we have a lot of nature in Canada so I do Canoe Tripping, Hiking, and Biking.

When I am not traveling normally I am reading a book or learning a language..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quote: "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darkness at Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain." - Bladerunner (movie)
