If you are looking for a one night stand or anything sexual leave my page!!! I’m NOT interested! You are wasting your time!!! I’m looking for lifetime friends NOT partners!

I’ve been traveling/wandering the world for 20yrs and have visited 90+countries. I love to go off the beaten path and explore the unknown non touristic areas. Learning the unique cultures and ways of others brings me joy!

Together we can create a peaceful, loving earth...Life is about who we are internally, not what we have externally...ONE WORLD...ONE LOVE....namaste...light and Much Love
