ABOUT ME

Out-going person that has achieved partial retirement. I live alone in a modern city 5 minutes from the US Olympic Training Center, 20 minutes from the Pacific Ocean and the US - Mexico Border Crossings. All of this by choice. I'm 6' tall and about 210lbs. I am a male that happens to be mixed with Black and Indian. People generally like me.

I have 2 kids in college, which I have encouraged to travel as well.

PHILOSOPHY

As squirrels go- Life, Love, Happiness and a Good Nut.
Enjoying life, finding new things and people to love, and the memories of happiness whilst enjoying the different unique foods of the area.
