I'd describe myself as a travel enthusiast, cancer sur-thriver and romaing gnome.

"I am of the school that maintains that migration is good for the soul. I believe with the Hopi Indians that one must cross the earth up and down and sideways before finding one's center." -- Author Andrei Codrescu

For those of you that have missed it - in June of 2006 I was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer that is usually diagnosed in people twice my age, and is 90% of the time misdiagnosed before correctly being diagnosed as Carcinoid Cancer. Although not cured of the disease, I have managed to thrive with it, and encourage others to go, experience life!

In January 2014, my husband and I moved to Switzerland to follow our dreams of living internationally!
