I'm a curious sort. I've traveled widely around the world. I've also lived abroad, primarily in the People's Republic of China and the Philippines. I'm seeking an understanding of other people, cultures, beliefs, and traditions. Let's connect. I'm friendly, open-minded, and non-judgmental. I have many hobbies: running, weightlifting, hiking, taking online courses, going to the cinema, visiting local museums, and .... I'm retired now, but I'm happy, healthy, and ready to be your pen pal.
