CURRENT MISSION

My life's mission is to leave this place better than I found it. I love people, cultures and personalities. Travel is a tool for me to meet interesting and wonderful people and to share my home with them.

ABOUT ME

I am a fun person who loves life! But a selfish life is really no life at all. So I like to share: Time. Energy. Passions. Dancing. Oh, yeah....gotta dance! I am young 51. I embrace everyday as a race with one goal to finish and finish well. I am Curious. Humorous. Adventous... and other "ous's". I love to write. I love to talk and I love to watch the eyes of others and engage them in their life story. Life is Short. But Life is Good.

PHILOSOPHY

The day is wasted if I have not helped another person to better themselves.

Musica, film e libri

Love Sci Fi, Dramas. Anything "Merchant/Ivory". I would rather draw or paint than read. But I love a classic that spends time on character development.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I have watched the sun rise and paint the sides of El Boqueron, in El Salvador, with thirty shades of green and gold. I have smelled the gritty, wood fires and tasted the smoky mist in Isarn, Thailand and there, felt like I could fly - in the back of a red pick up - long before Miss Winslet made her Titanic debut. I have knelt and cried, after carrying the dead, from a tragic auto accident in Asia...and been reborn in the shadow and majesty of volcan Toliman in Guatemala.

Insegna, impara, condividi
