About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life is all about experiences...

ABOUT ME

sociable, reliable, open-minded, honest, freedom-loving, passionate & enthusiastic

PHILOSOPHY

David Conover said something that I totally agree with:

"...a fantastic dream can come true if your dream is strong enough. The tragedy is that so many of us get sidetracked or lack courage. So get busy with all your heart. Let no one tell you there isn't magic in a dream..."
