When I hiked up this mountain in Bavaria. When I got near the top I was sure there was a farm around because I could clearly hear the cowbells from the animals. It wasn't until I reached a clearing above the tree tops that I could see that the sound was coming from the farm far, far below me. It struck me how the air must be so nice and clear here. And it was a more beautiful vista than I could describe or that my camera could capture. Can never forget it.

I enjoy meeting people from different cultures, who are open to sharing their stories and experiences.

I love meeting new people and finding myself in new surroundings, having stumbled upon a grand adventure. I like sharp, intelligent and humorous films and books. Eclectic taste in music. I've just heard enough country to last me my whole life, though.
