About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world, meet some great people, and maybe learn something at the same time!

ABOUT ME

I am single, love animals and nature, have lived mostly in British Columbia but also in Alberta. I spent most of my career working for the big banks. I am now retired, living in the beautiful Okanagan, and spending most of my time travelling and volunteering.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we create our world, and get out of life exactly what we put into it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love most music, especially jazz, blues, classic rock. I'm not crazy about country, and don't like rap or heavy metal. I don't watch many movies, but if I do, they're usually romantic comedies. I love books, and have very ecclectic tastes in that area.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing is when I met His Holiness the Dalai Lama in Calgary. It was an amazing, emotional experience I will never forget.

Teach, Learn, Share

That we are all one, and what we do to others, and the planet, we do to ourselves.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Respect, appreciation, and enthusiasm.
