I love movies, music, the outdoors, travel (foreign & domestic), books, history, and good conversation. Any place I’ve been to has given me back something to think about and treasure, but some of my favorite places are: Rome, London, Scotland (anywhere), Paris, Prague, Ireland (anywhere, but prefer the small towns like Skibbereen), Budapest, Florence, Siena, Budapest, Oslo, Goteborg, Stockholm, Bergen, Copenhagen, Brussels, Monaco, Cannes, Bavaria, Barcelona, Austrian Alps, Tokyo, Hong Kong.
