CURRENT MISSION

to enjoy life, and remember to be kind and patient

ABOUT ME

I love to travel. I love to meet new people. But sometimes I love to sit at home alone and just read or study. I love to live in the sun and the heat, but love to visit snow covered mountains. I love sharing good books, magazines, videos, music or newspaper articles with friends and family. I admire humanitarians, mothers, doctors, teachers and all people who have found a purpose in their life. I try to understand and appreciate everyone's daily struggle, but sometimes I'm selfish and can be blinded by my American (read: instant gratification) ways. I hope to live life more simply and actively, stay fit, broaden my knowledge of language, culture and religion, and meet people who have eye-opening stories they want to share over a walk, run, or a glass of wine.
