About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To breathe the air in as many new countries as I can...so that they may fuel my creative pursuits....on the wings of reality and not just imagination !

ABOUT ME

Me..........well, I am all of 33 and enjoy every minute of what I do, including filling this profile.
My interests are varied, but tied togather with the essence of enjoying them all. I make friends for life....all over the world. Simple at heart who likes fine things that life has to offer. Below average golfer, football freak, compulsive foodie, artist by chance, above average cook, people watcher voracious reader and Mr wanderlust.....Like to discover anything new- as I learn more about me - mostly thru other people and places.
After all, I am mass of protoplasm that wants to live and not just survive !
