CURRENT MISSION Planning the next trip ABOUT ME I have lived in France for over 30 years now, for the past 15 with my French partner Benoit who is an architect/scenographer. I am a scenic painter. My paintings are often inspired by landscapes from around the world. We like to travel with a purpose; we've been to Senegal,Ghana, Sri Lanka and the Seychelles, painting murals in schools or for NGOs, as volunteers.We travel mainly in winter; in the summer I usually have a lot of work here on stage sets. We live in a village 30km north of Nimes, (with no train station). I think we're pretty outgoing people, enjoy good food,wine, laughing, dinners with friends. We have no TV. PHILOSOPHY Life is what you make it
