I do believe traveling makes us grow as a human being and that  it is something  that can not be taken away from us. I believe every time we travel is a life time learning experience.

I am married with a native New Yorker, born-and-bred in Brooklyn.  My husband is a former NYC prosecutor, lawyer, Army Colonel, a Military JAG Officer and a veteran. I could not be more proud of him!  On the weekends,  he is a grill master, carpenter, handyman, and a babysitter.

 

We share love for protein shakes, mountains, lakes, working-out, movies, sunrises and sunsets, family gathering, world history, Old homes, especially  the Victorian ones.  What we like to do the most is sip a cup of coffee in our backyard, and let the sun kiss our skin and hear the cardinals sing.

I’m never bored and I dont have time to do all my hobbies.
