Hey Ex-Pats!

Any Tony Robbins fans?  LOL!! 

OK, first I'm not spam or some 12 year old who got on my mom and dads computer.  LOL!

Real name is Dina (single 40-somthing, no children) with a marvelous and unique life! living in central Washington and working in Alaska for a big oil company.  LOVE my life and my career! 

I'm not ready to retire....and actually ya know what?  i don't "believe" in the concept of "retirement" like many Americans... trudge along until "someday" and then life will be better (I know that's NO ONE HERE!).     My life is fulfilled, rewarding, magical, outrageous RIGHT NOW< yet simple and I live each day passionately doing  what I love to do, contributing what I can to people.... BUT I do plan ahead.

I have been thinking of moving to another country in a future--I think ITALY...small town, modest.......also considered Ecuador, and, oh, get this...  for my awesome career, I work 2 weeks on, then I am OFF 2 weeks (I work in the Alaskan tundra coastal area).  I am so fortunate and grateful for such a wonderful job!  So, I can actually visit on my time off and working for big oil my salary is nice.   You'd be hard pressed to find someone more grateful than I. 

Been perusing some of your posts and I appreciate the genuine feedback I see here. 
Many of you have some great live's and so full of energy and helpful tips! 


My life is very simple...I own no home, have no TV and actually I was living in an Alaskan cabin with NO RUNNING water and an outhouse for almost a decade.  Running water rocks!

I have MUCH to learn and I don't rule out anything so I may find another country and continent is more suited.  My interests are fitness (I need a gym!), rock climbing, mountain biking, backpacking. 


THANK YOU for reading this... I appreciate it.  I'm looking forward to learning about you!  And hearing how much you love life where ever you are!

Warm regards,
Dina
