I am an endangered species: in my mid-forties, never married, no kids, circumstances making for an eclectic footprint on the planet thus far. It as been an interesting ride. I'm beginning to think I have the mystical “novelty seeking” gene implanted somewhere in my DNA.Typcal tourism has never been for me. In my wanderings I've helped track endangered kangaroos, rebuilt sailboats and wrangled rhinos. Sitting still for awhile in northern Idaho, trying to write it all down
