There are three things I deem important to life: family, friends and health... all other things are just details!I LOVE traveling and being outdoors...I have learned to appreciate so much by travelling and meeting people of other cultures and seeing some of the awe-inspiring places that exist in this world for us to enjoy. I care about preserving nature and educating children.I think we often take for granted what we have, so everyday I'm thankful for my freedom and living in this great country.

Travel is my passion

Love movies (film minor undergrad)

I always try to live my life by the saying, "leave the world better than you found it when you came into it". And strong belief in Tikkun Olam.

Most recently I have been getting into exploring healthy eating, nutrition and alternative medicine.

My most recent quotes I've found that I thought were interesting are:
The best is the enemy of the good...takes a while to understand, but it's very powerful once you get it. Got this quote from my brother-in-law, but actually Voltaire said it first.

Most people work hard and spend their health trying to achieve wealth. Then
they retire and spend their wealth trying to get back their health. I got the quote from Kevin Gianni, but haven't found yet who said it first.

Insanity quote from Einstein: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

I was never a big reader until a few years ago and here are some of the interesting books I've read lately:
Currently reading Overthrow. Just finished Dante Club, really dragged at first, but came around at the end. I discovered a few years ago that I like historical fiction...who knew. Recently read possibly my fav Devil in the White City. Other recent Disgrace after my return from S.Africa awesome. Thunderstruck, City of Fallen Angels, Angels &; Demons, Angel of Darkness, Cold Mountain. For the business side right not i'm reading Word of Mouth Marketing. For business also like: Word of Mouth Marketing, Purple Cow, Tipping Point, Blink, Leadership and Self-Deception, currently reading Blue Ocean Strategy.

I assume this means in a relationship? If so, then best friends who have, above all, honesty and the ability for complete communication, respect and sharing. Ability to grow together. A mental, spiritual and physical attraction.Commitment to work through the difficult times, the ability to not take everything so seriously and the ability to use humor to alleviate the tension.

Besides a relationship I'm always looking for:
time with family and friends, a balance life, great health, more time, delicous food, the next place to travel to and a bunch more.
