Friendly and curious about the world and other cultures and want to learn as much as I can about how other people live around the globe. I love history, photography, maritime archeology, geology, trains, and shipwreck history. I spend a lot of time hiking, kayaking, camping, traveling to learn, trying to learn Spanish and Italian, reading, architecture and gardening. I am happily married with two cats and work as an environmental consultant on energy infrastructure projects. Am a bit of an introvert but not afraid to chat with anyone! I love walking and eating my way through old cities.
