About Me

___“In three words I can sum up what I’ve learned about life: It goes on” Robert Frost. I love to venture such as traveling and exploring new places. One of my goals is to travel to many countries before I die. I have been to places in Japan and in Europe. I also have been to the Philippines, Mexico, and Canada. The Air Force has made me fortunate in allowing me to live on Okinawa for a few years. People, culture, and how societies function greatly intrigue me and that is one of the reasons why I try to keep an open mind about people. It is not the action of what a person did, but the INTENT behind his or her action. Also, I love food and savor the many different types which include anything, but American fast foods. My favorite is a glass of sweet wine combined with a piece of chocolate. Family and close friends are whom I cherish most, and I love them. I enjoy being around the comfort of people whom I am close to versus having masses of acquaintances or countless group of friends with whom I have no rapport or significant bond, however, my heart is always open to new people who always manage to surprise me in a positive way. The gym is my safe haven and where I blow off steam. ============================================================ ======================================== I have received questions in regards to who my photographer was in these black & white photos of myself. She is a very good friend of mine whom I met on Okinawa, Japan when I was stationed there. She is absolutely creative and delightful to work with and has the ability to put me at ease since I am typically a shy person when it comes to being photographed. Despite all the apprehension I've felt, I was amazed by the quality results of my photos and the art they exude without being demeaning. The photos captured my emotion on my last weekend here on Okinawa. Jyllian, you are truly an extraordinary photographer who can captivate the depth and soul of a person through the lenses of your camera. You can reach my friend at www.jyllsphotography.com

Climbing Mt. Fuji

Climbing Mt. Fuji was no easy feat and definitely not what I expected.  After I have accomplished a bit of study, symptoms of hypoxia, sometimes known as mountain sickness, include headaches, vomiting...

Trance Party

I just got back from this Trance party from Naha City in Okinawa, Japan.  Love the music, but the place was like a box!  It's almost the size of a bedroom packed with tiny Japanese people.&n...
