About this blog

A dream come true- The experience of traveling around the world and meeting people from all over, immersing myself in cultures and religions that I know nothing about and forcing myself to break down communication barriers in order to survive is the most rewarding experience of a lifetime. I welcome you all to share in this journey with me- you are all always with me -in mind, spirit and heart- my stories and interactions reflect the person I have become from the people who have influenced me. The present is my quest to learn the ways of the world through others eyes and hearts.
