Maricel

Maricel is a passionate collector of coins and paper money from around the world and also has a vast collection of Funkos (google it) and small collectible cars. She LOVES tomatoes and has her heart set on visiting Italy someday.

 
 

Steve

Steve has been practicing the ancient art of Tai Chi for more than 30 years! He would never tell you about it himself but he has also spent some time acting in the local repertory theater. He is a dark chocolate fiend.

 
 
 

Hailyn

Hailyn loves nothing more than to spoil her little dog, Sadie. And now her new addition, Dusty. Her travel fantasy is the nordic countries; Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Iceland. She would love to go there someday and be wowed by the Northern Lights.

 
 

Kath

Kath is a nature lover extraordinaire and spends hours in the mountains, hiking and foraging for wild edibles. She is faith-filled and would someday love to go to Israel and visit all the ancient countries to witness the Bible come to life.

 

Jerri

Jerri started her long employment career at the age of 8 catching nightcrawlers for a gas station in her hometown. Luckily for us, she soon moved on to babysitting, and now she works Guest Services for The Inn at Lynden like a boss. Jerri is a quick wit who would love to someday visit the Bahamas. But only if she could take a bus. Long flights are not her thing.

 
 

Tomas

While we are afraid to ask him to demonstrate, Tomas says he is pretty handy with a butterfly knife. One day he’d love to visit Amsterdam to see firsthand the canals, architecture and windmills. His favorite dish is alambre, a Mexican dish mixture of meats, bell pepper and cheese.

 
 

Daniela

You could try to out-nice Daniela, but you’d be wasting your time. She says her favorite food is mole and if you ever wanted to poison her a plate of that would be the easiest way to do it. Her travel fave is the Big Apple. She loves the NYC vibe with all the great people, walks, history, museums and food.

 
 
 
 

Kate

Kate is a quiet creative with a sharp eye for photography, layout and design. She is a fabulous illustrator, to boot. Kate would like to visit Greece and has hopes to someday move to Sweden, but not just yet.

 
 

Kristina

If we are fantasizing about travel, then Kristina would most like to travel through time. She is an accomplished writer and has had many short stories published in the Whatcom Writers Anthology. At the top of the food groups for Kristina is COFFEE. And if that’s not available, then it’s chocolate covered coffee beans, thankyouverymuch.
