CURRENT MISSION continue to know more about planet Earth and saving the planet ABOUT ME I was a hippie in the sixties in San Francisco. I always loved traveling and in between going to school and then working traveled to so many continents. Because of my health currently, I'm not able to travel like I would love to do. I had a serious accident (spinal cord injury) in New Delhi, India in March 2010 and this has restricted my travel -- no more hikes and lots of steps scare me away. Mostly I can't get around as well as before and .use a walker much of the time for balance. I can walk around the house, but this year I had a number of health issues which has made my mobility less and less. PHILOSOPHY Listen to my heart and intuition and go with it. Cherish dreams and actualize if possible. Be of service to those around me whenever I can. Try to be true to myself and not hurt others.

Hitch hiked and lived on a fishing vessel around Africa but I was alot younger then! Married an African Chief, and years later, also became an African Chief. Flew on Concorde six times. Entered a foreign country illegally by canoe and the only solution I could think of was to destroy my passport.

Mis intereses
Travel, history, museums, learning -- open to new ideas. I can be a real couch potato too watching Netflix and Amazon movies. I am a net-junkie and on line as much as I can. I am still into discovering more of Asia; India and China. I am drawn to the arts, dancing, music especially percussion. I am very interested in subjects saving the earth for future generations.
