Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

erm...i did run a marathon 3 years ago...not the most amazing thing I've ever done but it may just have been the hardest! ....and I am currently trying to cycle around the world, a work in progress! Other top memories include sipping disguisting yak butter tea with nomads in the himalayas, crossing the Nularbor desert Australia by bicycle, pedaling up to the Taj Mahal, dodging elephants and cows on the roads of India, unknowingly getting knighted as a shaman "wisewoman" in Guatemala, 16 hr night fishing in the equivalent of a bathtub El Salvador, getting my Divemaster in Honduras,worked in Tibet for 6 months, penguins waking me up from my tent New Zealand....every day is an adventure with amazing moments!

and i had the privilege to visit these amazing places....
