I would like to throw my name in the hat aswell for this little adventure.

My qualifications as as follows;
I am a corporate pilot who travels almost daily for work and when I am not, I travel for pleasure. I have an excellent knowledge of N.America (including LA and NYC), Europe, and Central/Sout America. I have lived In the US/Canada/ and Carribean (Turks and Caicos).

As a Pilot I fly with people I have never met or hardly know as often as I fly with friends, regardless, we as flight crew are placed in a situation where it is required to be together in a small space for 8-14 hrs a day and then go to a hotel, and eat/drink/ hangout in a new city ect..as such I believe I have the people skills to get along with almost anybody.

Lastly, I am going to be a new father at christmas and this could be last chance to go anywhere other than Safeway for diapers for a few years.........
