CURRENT MISSION

to Meet, Explore and Experience

ABOUT ME

I'm still going! And I don't plan to stop any time soon. I really love to travel and meet people, hear stories (LOVE stories) and find out what makes a person their own unique self. I'm into cycling, hiking, running, climbing, singing, local breweries and getting out of my house.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is wonderfully up to now.
