CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people, live more in the moment

ABOUT ME

I guess I'm a pretty easygoing person, really like meeting people and hearing their stories, swapping tales and advice and laughter. Love being outside, working or playing, especially when it involves rivers and kayaks or canoes. I'm also a big fan of traveling and exploring new places. Any questions, just ask!

PHILOSOPHY

When I die, and my life flashes before my eyes, I want to have something good to watch!"

Don't make assumptions
Don't take anything personally
Be impeccable with your word
Always do you best

When in Rome....

It is easier to ask forgiveness that permission

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Mostly foreign, or black and white, specifically Le Cercle Rouge (the red circle), Pan's Labyrinth, Wages of Fear, Some Like it Hot, Neuvos Reinas (nine queens)

Rock, folk/celtic (especially when mixed with rock), just about anything other than violent ridiculous rap.

Roald Dahl is hands down my favorite author, and for the last couple years I've been on a Scandinavian crime/mystery novel kick... Henning Mankell's Kurt Wallander series, Arnaldur Indridasson, Karin Fossum, and Yrsa Sigurdurdottir. Also Neil Gaiman, Bill Bryson, Kurt Vonnegut, the list goes on
