How I Love to Spend My Time
When I'm Not Protecting Familes
I've always been the person who wants to experience everything life has to offer.
My biggest fear is lying on my death bed, sucking in my last breath as I suddenly think of some adventure that I've never experienced and it being too late...
I'll probably be that 90 year old, one legged man that they have to drag around on some African Safari or hot air ballon ride with his oxygen tank strapped to his back. (If I haven't experienced that yet.)
People have told me I am the most passionate person they've ever met and it's my goal to infect everyone I meet throughout my life with this virus called passion. :-)
Next to extreme activities like sky diving, bungee jumping, rafting, horse back riding, I also enjoy ordinary sports like basketball, tennis, jogging, yoga and weightlifitng.
I love anything that's alive; nature, animals, people, water, sun, trees, flowers, anything really...
I love to read, write, think and laugh but most of all I love to be around people and music.
The best way I've found to experience life is through traveling...
Nothing does a better job exposing you to new life and ideas than by putting yourself in a new place; stepping out of your comfort zone and seeing through the eyes of others.
Hiking Trip on Maui Island
The biggest eye opener in my life was in 2000 when I lived in the third world country, Ukraine for an entire summer. What a challenge that was because I didn't even study the language before I went. Nope, I just went with a pocket dictionary and started reading on the plane.
To see how an entire country lives and how they suffer and deal with daily problems really makes you appreciate what you have in the country you live in. It makes you work hard and strive to for a much bigger purpose other than yourself.
