my VN interview

How did you get to where you are now?

Placewise?  I had lived here in NM several years ago and loved it, but had to return to CA for a few different reasons.  After 12 years there I decided to come back, missed the wide open spaces, the SW cultures, the art, the food!

Personwise?  I have made some good choices and some I have regretted.  Such is life.

How do you see yourself differently now than you did 10 years ago?

I'm finally realizing I won't be on this planet forever, am simplifying my life, cultivating more common sense, and just doing what I want to do!  Not worrying about what people think so much.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

Hopefully still healthy, enjoying my life here, and still travelling.
