About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to know what people eat for lunch around the world. I want to learn to say hello, thank you and goodbye in any language.

ABOUT ME

You just have to trust me on this one LOL. People say I'm fun to be with. I don't take myself too seriously. I travel, I read books. I think of myself as resourceful, if I don't know it, I can find out. Considerate. Friendly. Speak my mind. I know when to talk and when to shut up. Dependable. I'm a dreamer.

PHILOSOPHY

Skin color, gender, sexual preference, nationality, ethnicity, political affiliation , religion, languages you speak, at the end of the day, it's all exactly that, skin!
