CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life and share wih others - and do some traveling

ABOUT ME

I really enjoy and get excited when I think about traveling, meeting new people, seeing how life is "on the other side". It is amazing that there are so many ways to looking at life, languages, foods, values, cultures, art styles. I have been spoiled because I lived in Italy for 10 years and traveled non stop to many Italian towns large and small, visited most European countries (East,West,Central,North and South). I am a member of another travel club (Servas International) and this allegiance allowed me the ability to stay in people homes and exchange ideas and to see "really how people live". I traveled in Europe when it was more affordable and a "good deal" could be had by purchasing a month long all country Eurail pass. I am an Italophile because my heart strings got pucked many times a day while I lived and worked there by it's food, art, cobblestone streets, beautiful people and the dicotomy in their values, and their systems of work, government and socializing, plus "the family". I had curbed my international traveling somewhat to raise a family but now I am a newly "empty nester" and am compelled to start up my adventures once more. I naturally have a totally adventurous spirit a burning desire to seek out new discoveries.

PHILOSOPHY

I hope to live a life and was useful and well spent.
