About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working-Saving and Investing Money- until I decide to make the final move and live somewhere I love

ABOUT ME

Well I think I am an interesting fun person until I read all the interesting people here. Wow, so many languages and travels. About fifteen years ago, I caught the bug and started traveling regularly. I spent a lot of time in Guatemala working in an orphanage. Made some great relationships and keep going back. It was the trade off of seeing a lot of the other parts of the world. I joined the Army at 40 also after September 11 and now am a combat medic in the reserves (finished that school 09/2011. No immediate plans on being deployed, but still makes travel more difficult. Well now I am out of the Army and looking to retire early somewhere I love. Probably Central America. I was in Egypt in Nov-Jan 2014 and really liked that too. That was my introduction to C.S. It was great although all I did was meet and travel with others.

PHILOSOPHY

Well I need to travel more and enjoy life more. Happiest when helping other and leading a good Christian life. But that is not right now. Miss it, but still having some fun.
