Ruben's Story

I've been married twice and I have one son. during the 60's I went through my hippy period, hair to the midle of my back, and the rest of the garbage that went with that era. My most recent excitement has been in my envolvement with a disaster relief organization that has allowed me to travel to many countries, most of which many would prefer not to visit. I've had the opportunity to travel into Sudan, in the northern most part of Africa around 14 times in the last 6 years. The visits have been eye opening to say the least. Presently I'm living in Nicaragua and have been for the last 3 years.
