CURRENT MISSION

It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.

ABOUT ME

My life is full of wonder, curiosity, and travel.

I work hard and play harder... Thankfully my job allows me to travel, so when I get a few days downtime - unless the travel bug bites, I'm content to sit around on the couch, drink wine, eat stinky cheese, and read.

Traveling wasn't as option as a kid, so now I'm getting it out of my system. I love to taste new foods, stay up all night talking, and generally work myself into an exhausted, zombie-like state.

PHILOSOPHY

I am in constant motion...perhaps one day I'll be a stone with fewer rough edges.
(I wish...)

-

Ten thousand flowers in spring
the moon in autumn,
a cool breeze in summer,
snow in winter.
If your mind isn't clouded by unnecessary things,
this is the best season of your life.

Interessen

Reading a good mystery novel...then being a rabid fangirl of the author.

I love to write as well, though I've had trouble finding inspiration lately.

I enjoy cooking and testing out my recipes on friends.
I also enjoy when my friends try new recipes on me.

I love sending snail-mail, laughing until my sides hurt, and playing ultimate frisbee.

Ohh...and I secretly like to do aerobics from the 80's - but I make sure all the blinds are tighly closed. :D

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I rarely traveled as a child - and at the age of 23, I set out on a journey to remedy the lack of adventure.

In less than two years I've traveled the US and spanned several continents.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Complain less. Love more. Stretch. Eat rich foods and don't feel guilty.

Write. Try to tickle your own ribs - just to see if you can.

Appreciate endlessly, the people who take the time to learn your language...
