CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to find clever and affordable ways to travel that enable me to meet interesting people. The norm is not for me. Big hotels are not for me. I want to experience new cultures and I'm willing to allow others to share mine.

ABOUT ME

I'm a middle-aged married woman living in Southern Oklahoma. I recently purchased a scooter! (mid-life crisis?) I write plays and I'm lucky enough to have my work produced all over the world. I have two sons who attend OU. My husband of 29 years owns a VW restoration business. I work as an HR Manager for a local distribution center. I worked at Michelin as a production manager for 17 years. I love my back yard. We have a pool and a hot tub. I have a pretty garden with lots of funky art in it. We love cooking outside on the patio and enjoying a bottle of wine with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Do the right thing...never sell out your ethics.

Organized religion is not for me. Fanatics and pushy people need to keep their distance. I will eat you alive.

I support the war on terrorism. Somebody needs to stop terrorists, and I'm proud that my country is stepping up to the plate.
