Travel has always been a passion of mine, grew up in a military family and that's where the wanderlust started! I lived abroad as a child (Libya), and was exposed to many other cultures from an early age. I travel solo or with a friend, either works for me. I'm a kind and thoughtful person, but with a strong, forthright personality. Hobbies are flyfishing, painting, drawing, reading, museums, and in earlier days, lots of sports (doing, not just watching). I'm in fairly good shape still but not about to run a 10k again! Working on growing older gracefully (it can be done!).
