travel, writing, photography, languages, target shooting, fused glass, floral design, checking things off of my "Things to Do/See Before I Die" list, learning new things, and meeting interesting people
Music
runs the gamut, pending my mood -- anything from Jon Schmidt and Josh Groban to Vienna Teng to Disney Princesses (I get extra points for being able to admit that!) to Rascal Flatts to Precious Death. I'm also known for listening to international radio -- especially Italian and Indian.
Movies
A Beautiful Mind, Sense and Sensability, the Power of One, the Count of Monte Cristo, Shadowlands, Anne of Green Gables . . . My yardstick for a good movie is anything that makes me think or makes me feel.
Television
Globetrekker, Man vs Wild, Alias (miss that show!)

About me: I once heard an illustration of a group of people living at the base of a cliff. Some of those people are happy and content all of their days to live by their cliff and admire its strength and beauty. Others are curious what is beyond the cliff, but lack the drive to seek out what lay on the other side. Still others, overcome with sheer wonder, absolutely must know what is on the other side of the cliff. Travel is my passion, my "other side of the cliff," and I hope my life will contain many trips to the other side. Please see my blog for stories of these journeys.

Nargiz has been planning to go to Norway this weekend for a few months. She's doing some kreative-exhibition together with her dad... what I didn't know was that it's been moved to february and she hasn't told me, so she woke me up early this morning with love and breakfest :-)
These black and whites make me totally excited for when you do my tatoo pics. I have alot of requests to see it when its done...so the shoot will be interesting. Have to be able to post the pics on my space and facebook. What do you think about your pink fabric thingy?
Hey!!! :) Thanks for the comments on the pics from Savannah! I have more, just ran out of time to get them up here...still have to go through Hilton Head and Charleston shots, too! And then there are all the ones Paul took that I have to get up here, too, for him! Whew!! :) Heading to Baltimore this weekend -- YEAH!!!! Hope you had a BLAST in Denmark!!!! Miss ya!!!! XOXOXO
sorry it took me so long to check out that amazing collection of photos from your travels... you've inspired me to get a good camera and stop losing so many good moments and memories I could have from touring.
I've been told that before. Sometimes a break from reality is absolutely necessary. The way I see it, I'm just doing what everyone else wants to do, but won't. :)
Denise, your copyright pictures are torturous but so incredibly beautiful!!! Recently, they have become my happy place due to me not getting my beach this summer....
