She, Jared Holfeltz, and their son Gabriel are currently living out of their car.
Jared Hopes to start a contracting business helping rebuild after natural disasters, but he recently hurt his wrist working a construction gig. So their dreams are on hold for a few weeks until his wrist improves.

About
I’ve had the good fortune to live in many far-away places; from Brazil to Tokyo, from London to the Middle East.
——–
’04 and ’05 I was working in Amman, Jordan; +ten-hour days, seven days a week, eight straight weeks, followed with twelve days off.
Anywhooo, I jus’ by chance happen to hear the Stones: “Time, time, time is on my side, yes it is”
And THEN I realized, NO it’s NOT; so I QUIT, and ended a thirty-five year career in Construction Management.
Since August of 2005, I’ve been living in Chiang Mai (the Rose of the North), Thailand; a.k.a. the Land of Smiles.
