Personal Details: About me:
My interests have no boundaries. I'm open to anything and everything (within the legal limits, of course). I've learned through my travels not to judge books by their covers. I've traveled a respectable portion of the world and loved what I saw. I've lived in Alaska and the Netherlands. I spent a great deal of time in Germany and Belgium. Poland, Bosnia, Croatia, France, Luxembourg, Canada, Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait are also numbered among my foreign travels. Australia will hopefully be my next destination.
Stateside, I visited cities in NY, NJ, MA, PA, .., RI, OH, WI, MN, IL, KY, NC, GA, SC, AL, TN, MD, VA, IN, TX and UT, CA and NV. I work hard and play harder. I teach Financial Management Operations for the US Army Finance Command. Movies, writing and books consume a good portion of my free time. In fact, I hope to be a published author soon! I enjoy running to keep fit and compete in a 5K runs here and there. Of late, my focus has shifted to half and full marathons. I ran my first marathon Mar 2008 in Atlanta! Just ran the Buffalo Marathon in May 09. Next up is the Baltimore Marathon.
In the winter months, I love to escape to the slopes and get in a few hours skiing. I love to eat out; especially if dinner is complimented with good conversation. I'm also very social and enjoy being out among people. I do, however, still appreciate my personal time. Since I travel so often, my home time is special and I try to maximize it to the fullest. I have two sons who give me as much as I believe I’m giving them. Being a good father is paramount for me. My own Dad was cut down when I was very young and I want to give my sons all of me. So in short, I’m a simple man leading a simple yet exciting life. I try to enjoy it all, smiling often and laughing even more.
