About Me

CURRENT MISSION
I have been traveling the world, drinking wines, and experiencing the lands and people of the countries I visited.
My most recent Around-the-World (ATW) trip was 3-month traveling Southern Europe wine tasting in July - November 2024. It was a great time exploring beautiful landscapes and meeting the friendly people of Southern Europe (Balkans, Albania, Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain). Seeing Europe through the eyes of the locals, finding new friendships, learning about, and drinking wine was a true life experience.

ABOUT ME

I'm a retired professional living a life-worth-living by following my passions - meeting new friends, sharing laughter, eating local food, and of course drinking good wine. Work a bucket list. Carpe Diem

Divorced after 45 years, of marriage, I’ve grown. I cannot think of anything more rewarding than experiencing the world and its people, learning together, and sharing our differences and sameness – creating understanding.

PHILOSOPHY

I am fully aware of my mortality. Yet, I still wake up every morning with the desire to seek out adventure. Age need not be a barrier when you find passion in what you do. The true secret to keeping your curiosity alive is to continue to learn, find ways to be courageous, see challenges as openings to experience new opportunities, and touch a life worth living.
‘Carpe Diem’ each day to create, laugh out loud, and show that it is never too late to move forward with enthusiasm and joy."
