About me
I live in New York City but Lebanon is my second home. My son Alex is the newest addition in my life, and he will also be an aspiring world traveler someday. I’ve been to 52 countries so far, but aspire to see 100 in this lifetime. Next on my must-see list are, in no particular order, Iran, Ukraine, Colombia, Yemen, Cuba, Uzbekistan, Easter Island and Cambodia. Been there— done that? Drop me a note!Recent activity
