Über mich
CURRENT MISSION
Memories of people and adventures that make me smile everytime I think of them
ABOUT ME
I live in Philadelphia with my husband Keith. We enjoy going out to restaurants and events - Philadelphia is full of places and activities. In the spring and summer, I love to spend time outside at the beach, at local festivals, walking, riding my bike, playing tennis or just sitting on a blanket at a park. In the winter, I love to go skiing.
I also love to travel and really enjoy meeting new people especially over a good meal, drinks and conversation. I also have family in Puerto Rico that I love to visit a few times a year. I love the beach- I'm an island girl! I like going snorkeling and surfing.
PHILOSOPHY
Courage is more exhilarating than fear and in the long run it is easier. We do not have to become heroes overnight. - Eleanor Roosevelt
Work to Live, Don't Live to Work.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe
Climbing volcano villarica in pucon, chile was amazing! Especially because I had never hiked anything like that before. It was very fulfilling when I reached the summit. And then even more fun getting to slide down.
Isla Verde beach in Puerto Rico is my favorite beach! Ive been going there since I was a child but it never gets old.
Lehren, lernen, teilen
I would then go back to the basics and remind people never to forget The GOLDEN rule:
Treat others as you would like to be treated.
It also seems an appropriate thing to teach, learn, and share on CS2.
