About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Refill savings after RTW trip, plan another one! :D

ABOUT ME

I'm too much of a planner and I think about little details too much at work, so travel is a way to relax and try thinking/being in a new way. Allow myself to make mistakes, act-the-fool, and just go with where life takes me.

PHILOSOPHY

I'll do my thing, you do yours. As long as you respect me, I'll respect you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

From many years in Northern Canada working in the wilds right into Tokyo daily life of the Japanese (quite subtle but surrounded by 10s of Millions).
I discovered that if I put my mind to something and really try, that eventually it is possible... anything! OK, maybe it's not amazingly unique, but it IS amazing.
