ABOUT ME

I study linguistics (previously physics and astronomy) at the University of Washington (which in Seattle we lovingly refer to as the "U-Dub"). I have zillions of interests (including hyperbole), one of the most important is travel. I love camping, kayaking, cooking and food, music, photography and other art (making and viewing), and languages. I love going on adventures. I love showing people around my city and sharing my favorite things.

PHILOSOPHY

I strive to be very open-minded. I value kindness and compassion in people.

Centres d'intérêt

The universe and it's composition. Two of my favorite activities are volunteering both at the UW observatory and a Seattle vaudeville festival called Moisture Festival.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

it's hard to choose favorites- I love so many movies, bands, and books. I guess the music I can't live without includes the Pixies, Velvet Underground, Beatles, Bob Dylan, a lot of oldies like Chuck Berry and Beach Boys. Lately I really like Gotan Project. I also love opera and jazz/swing music. I have dozens of favorite movies, but The Royal Tenenbaums, Pulp Fiction, Boondock Saints, Shaun of the Dead, and Franco Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet are at the top of the list. Books/authors: F. Scott Fitzgerald, David Sedaris, Chronicles of Narnia, Radioactive Boyscout

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

The most incredible thing I have ever seen was the Font de Gaume cave in France. The cave paintings in it were from around 17000 BC, and I cannot effectively describe the experience.
