I think people that are local to any place are the best able to share it. I don't like staying in hotel rooms and talking to a concierge. I like sleeping on couches and floors, talking to people who call a place home and fitting true local activities and spots into my time anywhere. It's a bonding thing, and part of the reason I visit places is to connect with the people that call it home. And if I can provide that to anyone else, all the better.

Love something that hits my soul. Some killer instrumentals even better. I've been in a real RnB/jazzy mood lately, but I'm up for most genres. Listening to music while cooking gives me life. I read mostly nonfiction, but love a good fictional work.
