Let's get this out of the way: I am full vaccinated - I've even had my booster shot! Have my QR-code to prove it. I am an adventurous, happy person. Have had the opportunity to see 35 different countries (5 continents - need to get to all 7!). I grew up in Texas and the Netherlands (my father was in the military). I have lived in several different states as well as Bangladesh.

I like to call myself a "cultural sponge" - I enjoy learning about cultures, traditions, foods, etc from other countries / areas. Love good food and good wine!

Some of my favorite places: Rio de Janiero, Stellenbosch, Tulum, Pokhara, Glacier National Park (Montana)....

Movies: Shawshank Redemption, Palmeras de la Nieve, La vita è bella, Love Actually, Dead Poets Society....too many to name.

Books: the Tattooist of Auschwitz; Eat, Pray, Love; Orphan Train
