CURRENT MISSION

To keep myself out of the rut

ABOUT ME

I have been fortunate enough to:

- have a huge family and great friends
- have met so many amazing people in my travels and everyday life
- find this website!

PHILOSOPHY

Once you've been bitten by the travel bug, nothing is ever the same... ever.

Live life at your own pace.

Life is 10% what actually happens and 90% how you react to that which happens.

Keep your eyes, mind and heart open.

"I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.'" - Kurt Vonnegut

"Don't save anything for a special occasion. Being alive is the special occasion." - unknown
