I enjoy experiencing destinations from a local's perspective, to see and live the real city not just hotels and tourist traps. I've also had some extremely rewarding experiences when opening my home to strangers.

Favorite Music: Polyphia, Avett Brothers, Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell, Billy Talent, ZZ Top, Eminem, The Beatles, and most anything on the radio from the 60's to the 00's, and most anything not on the radio from the 00's to 10's, after which I probably have never heard of it. Favorite Movies & Television: Star Trek, Bullitt, Office Space, Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, Cruel Intentions, Always Sunny, Man on Fire, Black Mirror, Across the Universe, August Rush, Ed (NBC), What Dreams May Come, The Sopranos, Shrinking, Breaking Bad, The Holiday, and Jet Li movies Books: Mostly Non-Fiction, what I've read lately is The 4 Hour Workweek, Tools of Titans, Switch, Made to Stick, The Leaership Challenge, What the CEO Wants You to Know, Crucial Conversations, Smarter Faster Better. Enjoyed The Kings of Big Spring by Bryan Mealer, which was set just east of where I currently live. Killers of the Flower Moon, Wild, Bill Bryson, Kurt Vonnegut.
