Location:
Bellingham, WA, United States
Occupation:
Motorcyclist (actually retired)
I loan because:
I was fortunate to have been born into middleclass America and I've enjoyed a comparatively privileged life in this world. Kiva is a chance to share my unearned good fortune with only a small financial risk and the possiblity of actually making a significant difference in someone else’s life.
About me:
I'm a retired not-for-profit administrator. I now ride motorcycles whenever I can for fun and do a little volunteer work with the American Red Cross on the side. Here I am making a new friend in the Peruvian Andes -2009. I'll be riding up Africa from South Africa to Egypt and into Middle East and Europe most of 2011. Might try visiting some of the Kiva partners and borrowers along the way.
