CURRENT MISSION I'm leaving Japan after 4 1/2 years living and working as a teacher. Next up: applying to Grad School. First stop: 7 weeks in Da Nang, Vietnam ABOUT ME I cook, read, bike, drink, visit museums, sing karaoke, go to gardens, and try to enjoy my time here on earth. I do film photography, ikebana, and other things with my hands in my free time. It's important to me that I work hard and play hard. I'm also a night owl, so if you are a morning person, I am not the friend you are seeking!! This is very serious!! haha I appreciate that everyone is different and has a different experience. Regardless of religion, life choices, and personal upbringing, I love to talk to new people. I think it's important that we all listen as well as speak. PHILOSOPHY Meme pas peur!!
