About Me

CURRENT MISSION

We just want to learn about the world and spread that knowledge in our travels.

ABOUT ME

We are a fun loving couple. While lots of our free time is spent watching movies and television shows, we also like to get out and about. Felisa loves to cook and James loves to eat. We're currently enjoying living in South Korea and traveling to other countries every chance we get. We have two dogs, a Yorkie and a Schnauzer. In the fall and spring, James plays in an ultimate frisbee league and Felisa comes to take care of the wounded on the sidelines.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about living and sharing. Every day is a chance to learn about something new, a chance to meet new people, and a chance to share everything you're learning.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Felisa: Went bungee jumping off the highest bridge jump in the world while traveling in South Africa. The bridge was over a gorgeous valley, with a river that ended at the nearby ocean.
