About Me

CURRENT MISSION

see the world...

ABOUT ME

I may not die rich in hand... but I hope rich in heart. I am doing it "backwards"(they say). Had the house, the truck, the "cool" job... then I realized that I hadn't really been anywhere. Hadn't seen the world. Didn't know how the "other half" lived. I didn't want to be part of the 70% of N.Americans who don't own a passport...don't get me wrong... I was already part of the 30% who do -- but there was nothing in it... (how sad -- sniff). So here I am -- lucky enough to find a job that will let me travel (stay a little longer on each trip so I can Actually see the place I am in...)and see the world -- not all of it, But it's a start.
Oh, and my second job is as a photographer [I have a couple shots from my portfolio posted here -- so you can decide for yourself] ;)

PHILOSOPHY

You are only young once, but that can last a life-time...
