For those of you just itching to know more about about me, here goes.

One of the goals of my travels is to find something new and different to do with my life. Several years ago I saw an ad in a magazine, something for some huge SUV, that said, "Only 5% of your life is spent outdoors. Make the most of it." Ever since I saw that I have wanted to change that number in my life. I have been working for too long in IT, and I want to see a whole lot more daylight during the daytime than I have for the past decade.

Right now my interests include traditional healing, herbalism, homeopathy, shamanism, animism (kind of a lot of "isms", I know), sangomas, cultures other than my own, ancient art, traditional art/tribal art, handicrafts like beading, quilting, woodcarving... then there's still all those books I haven't read! It has been odd coming all the way to Ghana and find myself working once more as a web designer, but it hasn't changed my mind yet about wanting something that has more daylight to it!
