ABOUT ME
About me...still working that out. I am easy going person that loves to travel and meet new people. I enjoy the outdoors and anything water. I love to sail, canoe, kayak, backpack, camp, and ride my bicycle.
I like to meet new people, experience different cultures, and explore new ideas. I hope that I can contribute to others as they broaden their life experience, as I know they will for mine.
I am doing a bike tour from Jacksonville to Key West, Florida. I am planning a trip in the spring of 2013 to travel up the East Coast to Maine and Canada, then I am going to cross the US or Canada by rail to Vancouver, WA., and take the Alaska Marine Highway to Anchorage, AK. After visiting Alaska, I am traveling to Hawai'i and spend some time exploring the islands. I am looking forward to meeting many new people in my travels.
PHILOSOPHY
Most people are good and I enjoy meeting new and interesting people.
