Adventure is My Life
Sailing: I have a passion for sailing small yachts greater than 50' in length. Over a year at sea teaching and leading sailing flotillas. Sailed in the Caribbean, Mediterranean, and South Pacific. Taught over 100 people to sail. Biking: I have a passion for biking in exotic locations. Biked across France from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean over the Pyrenees foothills. Packed bikes in my plane and flew to remote airports and started biking. I hope to bike Saguenay Lac-St-Jean in the summer (bucket list). Hiking: I have a passion for hiking in remote areas of the world. Trip leader and pilot on four arctic expeditions. Enjoy hiking exotic destinations close to home. Have a passion for hiking during Fall foliage from Maine to the Carolinas. |
