CURRENT MISSION

Anie: Is to know I left this place a little better than when I arrived and making my wife happy meanwhile! Loreli: Find things that make me happy and share it with the people I love.

ABOUT ME

Anie: I´m fun (or funny according to Loreli), and I think I´m passionate about what I believe in and dedicated. I like being spontaneous and I consider myself very open minded and easy going.

Loreli: I can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once we get to know each other I am always up for some fun and adventure. I consider all of my relationships (friends, family) very important and I'm proud to say that most of my friends I have known since I was 4.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is short. Life is too short for regrets."

"If you have a vision of how you want to live your life, on your own terms, make a plan of how you can get there."

"It is better to have tried and failed at something, than never trying it for the fear of failure."

"I believe that if you put all your heart mind and soul into doing something well, and never give up, you can achieve what you dream of!"

"It is better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you are not."

"If I won't be myself, who will?"

"Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go like the wind. To be happy, rest like a giant tree in the midst of them all."

"When I first open my eyes upon the morning meadows and look out upon the beautiful world, I thank God I am alive."

"Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world."

"He who loses wealth loses much; he who loses a friend loses more; but he who loses his courage loses all."

"If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change."

"Don't let other people tell you what you want."

"The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it."

"Own only what you can carry with you; know language, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag."

Music, Movies, and Books

We are BIG fans of Lucille Ball! :)
Loreli loves anything from REAL vampire movies (not the twilighty ones) to great musicals. Anie goes more for chick flicks and comedy movies, but we enjoy anything in between.

Loreli's favorite books are Diablo Guardian by Xavier Velasco and Once Minutos by Paulo Coelho
Anie's favorites are Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach, The Little Prince and anything by Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein.. (yes I'm still a kid at heart)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things that has happened to me was to realize just how little we are and how great this whole world is.. think how much we can learn and grow from everything in it.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can learn together about our different cultures and share with you all of the great things we've done (so far)!

We can also teach you how to humanely save a stuck hamster that's been living in a pickup truck for a week! haha (the hamster is now doing very well!)
