CURRENT MISSION
I live to think, dine, drink, and travel well!

ABOUT ME
I really enjoy travelling the world. One of my main hobbies is dining at restaurants of all types, 1/2/3-star Michelin establishments, to a hole in the walls, wherever great food can be found.

PHILOSOPHY
Work hard, play hard.
Live in the moment.
Share whatever you have.
If you can't laugh at yourself, you'll get nowhere fast.

I try my best ot live in the moment, and enjoy life each day to the fullest.

Music, Movies, and Books

Documentaries, live theatre, opera and ballet. I listen to a lot of classical music. Re., books, I prefer reading history and sociology, as well as many newspapers and magazines from around the world (love my iPad = no more inky fingers!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have dined at thousands of restaurants to date, all over the map. Name the establishment, and I've probably dined there!
