Dinner with Maiu Reismann and Francis Tapon

Dinner with Maiu Reismann and Francis Tapon

Dinner with Maiu Reismann and Francis Tapon

Was having dinner with Maiu Reismann and Francis Tapon this evening, a uniquely inspiring couple who like to travel on a shoe string. Francis Tapon is a public speaker, consultant, and life coach. He has traveled to over 60 countries and plans to backpack the Pacific Crest Trail and the Continental Divide Trail. He was born and raised in San Francisco, is half French, and half Chilean. He has a degree with Honors in Religion from Amherst College and an MBA from Harvard Business School. Whilst Maiu Reismann seems like a true adventurer and good hearted women who is open to just about anything. They make a great couple.

They usually set off from country to country with nothing but a tarp and other basic ultralight equipment with the intention of just pitching up where ever is convenient. They can be characterised as a couple who almost continuously travel to absorb what ever the world throws their way, with a little help from being ready to camp or use the couch surfing project.

My first Half Marathon Results – A mess, but I’m happy

May 5

1:55, not the best result by far. I roughly did a little better then half the 2000 runners in the Malta Land Rover Marathon 2009.  It was not as tough as I first anticipated, but it was the longest run I’ve ever done. Read the rest of this entry »
