About This Website
I’ve been blogging since 2006. I’ve always thought of my blog as someplace where I can not only express myself, but tell others about the goings-on of my life. While I haven’t lived days that can come comparably close to some adventurers in this world, I’ve done some things and I continue to do them. Generally, the things I do are slower and more deliberate than much of what you see on the internet. I’m okay with that. I enjoy taking my time. I’ll tell you though, I’ve got lots of spirit as well as many, many ideas. I have a history that I’m proud of and a future that I’m excited about. On this website, I write about many of my bygone thoughts, ideas, situations, and outings, as well as what I’m up to currently. Some posts will be introspective, while others will be much more action oriented. Expect me to discuss traveling around and visiting places, cooking some excellent dishes, writing for the sake of writing, and thinking for the same, hiking, sightseeing, and so much more. I also enjoy photographing as well as interviewing interesting people from around the world. There’s a lot to do and I feel as though there will never be enough time to do everything I’d like. So be it. I’ll have fun while I can.
I like this quote by Theodore Roosevelt. Hopefully you will too: “The joy of living is his who has the heart to demand it. Life is a great adventure, and I want to say to you, accept it in such a spirit.”
