About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Countries and wine. So many, so little time...

ABOUT ME

LOVE to travel, LOVE wine, LOVE food! I like to check out the local beverages/dishes wherever I go. I like learning languages and meeting new people from all over the world. The world gets so much smaller and friendlier when I do! If I could ride my bike everywhere, I would. How lovely to have the wind in your face. I'm an avid reader and I totally dig the Rolling Stones!

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to make the world a smaller place by communicating as best I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

Rolling Stones, Led Zep, Les Nubians, jazz. I love that line from "Tombstone," where Val Kilmer says, "I'm your Huckleberry..." LOVE that!!!!! Any movie by Almodovar's got my attention. Books? Too many to mention - we'll have to chat...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most recent: Pueblo Inglés in Cazorla, España. FANTASTIC people! Great place for Spanish speakers to improve their English and everyone to blur borders. An incredible bonding experience with some great humans.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a stickler for smooth, economic routes to and from airports. The guidebooks do an ok job of putting that info in, but if anyone's got better ideas, we should share them.

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, Spain
