CURRENT MISSION

Back home in Canada...sigh...but wonderful to be with the people I love and the places I know so well...on the lookout for my next great adventure...

ABOUT ME

I've been travelling for about 20+ years, mostly work related,but I would love to do more personal travel though. I am a busy person, have an active life, wonderful friends, an interesting career, Myers Briggs INTJ (smile). Nice apartment in downtown Ottawa. Happy to help out fellow travellers along the way, as long as I am in town...over the past year have been home only 6 weeks!

PHILOSOPHY

I am a leftist libertarian who believes in respect for oneself and one another as the highest order. I believe there is no such thing as coincidence, and thus it is a moral imperative to be open to new experiences and opportunities.
