In traveling l like to learn culture and know people.
My travels are more people oriented and not landmark oriented.
Connection to the people, language, music, religion, customs, history, land etc.
I spent all of 2016 traveling Asia and appreciate different world views.
A strong relationship based on trust and true feelings makes lifetime friendship and strong bonds.
Respectful communication is important.
Open listening and not just talking.
I dont do wokeness.
Vaccination and all that no worry. I don’t discriminate and don’t live in fear.🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈

I am a gardener, horticulturist and Arborist.
I work hard. Everything plants, soils, and trees.
I worked as a firefighter for many years.

I have traveled extensively immersed in other cultures for long periods of time.
I accept all good from life and religions.
Being around many religions allows for a broader understanding of people’s different views.
I respect different views of people and religion worldwide, I do not feel culturally everyone should or must accept everything. That is impossible.

I distance hike and run hard and love physical cardio challenges.
I like distance backpacking and running.
I like local swimming, mountains, bathing in rivers, running, hiking, forests, outdoor things.

A few things:
No drinking, getting drunk or smoking pot - I will not be around it.

I sleep early around 10 pm and I Im up at 5:00 am and usually leave at 6:45. No arrivals after 8:30
You probably can’t stay in the house when I leave, so weekends are better.

I prefer to stay where there are no dogs or cats, allergies.

I am about true freedom of choice,
which truly pushes people,
because most people are open minded up to what they believe and understand and what the current fad is without any direct experience.

I am open to all who are open and good.

We will not connect if you are politically hateful and close minded to others views.
If you hate people because they don't have your opinion of American politics and cant accept that people that think differently,
or have different opinions than you...
don’t hit me up.

There are no shoes worn my house.
