My favorite author is Herman Hesse, and I love his book the Glass Bead Game, although I am also a fan the Hitchhickers Guide to the Galaxy series. Other books I've read recently include: El Demonio y la Seniorita Prim, The Book of Disquiet, the Life of Pi, Neither Here Nor There... The song stuck in my head today is Yer So Bad by Tom Petty, who knows what tomorrow will bring? Movies... well my top three faves are Donnie Darko, Fight Club and the Shawshank Redemption, although I also love: Life is Beautiful, The Boondock Saints, Pan's Labyrinth and Bandits

I am learning Spanish and I could help other people practice it, I can give tips on where to go in Costa Rica,
