What is Wanderings and Musings?
Wanderings and Musings is my spot on the web to write about the adventures I have in life while traveling, exploring or even sitting quietly contemplating life. We all have a voice and opinions to share about our journey on this lonely planet, and it’s time to put mine out there for all to see.

Favorite pastime: I’ll give you one guess… it’s big and red somewhere on this page. My second favorite would be traveling and exploring new places, food, people, and cultures.
What kind of bike is that?: It’s called a Hayabusa or Suzuki GXS-R 1300 and is “oh shit” fast. I say that because my very first ride on it, right off the showroom floor, I was going gingerly for a few miles, then as I got onto the freeway I decided to goose it up a bit to see what kind of beast I was riding… and when I shot from about 20mph to 80mph in like 2 seconds, I distinctly remember hearing myself say “oh shit!!”
Where have I traveled to:
- Mexico – A few times in college
- Canada – multiple times
- Spain – 3 weeks in 2000
- Puerto Rico – 2 weeks in 2005
- Belize – 1.5 weeks in 2008
- Costa Rica – 2 weeks in 2008
- Thailand – 2 weeks in 2008
- United States – 2 months in 2008 riding all the way around on my motorcycle
- Peru and Ecuador – 5 weeks in 2009
- United Kingdom – 1 week 2010
Where I most want to travel next:
- Japan
- New Zealand

Hey,
I just returned from CA for a 5-days stay at a friend home. The foods were great. The weather was warm in day time and cold in evenings.
Have a safe trip.

I saw you on POF and thought you are really a good looking guy, now that I have seen this I think you are an amazing person and I admire and envy you. You are doing things I only dream about.
I will be following your travels and living vicariously in my dreams through you. Thanks, enjoy and I wish you safe travels.
Would love to talk to you when you get back.
Smiles

Yes! Come to New Zealand. If you do I suggest visiting Rotorua for the geothermal pools and travelling over the Southern Alps in the South Island by helicopter. It is one of the few completely untouched and most beautiful places on earth. Of course you can also climb our snow capped mountains, surf on our world class beaches and bungee off the skytower, the highest structure in the Southen Hemisphere. God I feel like a travel saleswoman but I guess I’m just very patriotic. P.S. thanks for the Zeitgeist: Addendum transcript.
