CURRENT MISSION

I am taking advantage of my one way ticket to Europe.

ABOUT ME

Hello there. I have lived my entire life in Southern California (originally from Orange County and then San Diego). I have always loved to travel. Traveling around the world makes one a better person. There is an understanding of people and environments that cannot be learned from a book. I thrive on my interactions with the people I encounter in my life. It is amazing to talk to those from all walks of life; conversations with these individuals influence character and views of all interests.

For the past 5 years I have saved about 50% of my income for an "all out" trip. That takes me to now. I have been in Europe since the first of April, 2009 and have been moving from one place to the next based on who I meet and what is recommended. I am loving this unplanned trip!

PHILOSOPHY
