CURRENT MISSION

I 'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony

ABOUT ME

I love learning about people and what we have in common Cooking with others, working in their garden as seasonally feasible, sharing large and small ideas that make a difference---all these are treasures.

I like to drive only about 4 to 5 hours a day which leaves me time in the morning and evening to visit with my host if available and really get to know a bit about them!

PHILOSOPHY

Life's like a movie, write your own ending. (Okay, so I am quoting my guru, Kermit d'Frog)
