ABOUT ME

I have lived in many cities in the U.S. where I have made many friends under many circumstances. I want to expand my horizons to China.

PHILOSOPHY

Unbridled materialism is the greatest threat to world peace. I am attempting to reduce my carbon foot print while opening myself to more human contact of all kinds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once raced to the Grand Canyon in the U.S. to beat a heavy snow storm. When I arrived, I was the only person within eye sight. I hiked down the icy trail with the vista to myself. A few icy patches at the 6000 foot precipice added to the excitement.
