Adventure seeker...

Life is short and I don't have time to wait around for adventure to find me. Along with my five rambunctious kids and a husband I first saw in my dreams, we feed our insatiable curiosity through books, movies, games, and shoestring-budget trips that allow us to discover the world and revel in its beauty.
