About Me

CURRENT MISSION

what's next?!

ABOUT ME

funny, inarticulate, friendly, warm, gourmande, wine lover, eye for good photographic compositions, random, quiet, silly, hungry, comfortable, easy-going, welcoming, pyromaniac, homebody, nature lover, queer, independent, moderator, contra dancer, optimist, gardener, reader, creative, lazy, bike-rider-on-flat-roads, coffee drinker, laugher...

I don't have a "real job" but do a lot of other things. I'm thinking about many possibilities. I do
run a pop-up restaurant in Belfast where you can come and meet locals, have good food, and have a really great night in town. check out the website and make a reservation if you're in town :) www.plot15supperclub.com

I'll tell you anything you want to know about me, just ask!

PHILOSOPHY

You can choose your attitude.

Take the time to get to know yourself and what you really want in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like jazz, funk, the blues, folk and other stuff too. Currently I like Charlie Parker, miles davis, Simon and Garfunkel yann tierson, gipsy kings, adele, kate nash, bach...

My favorite book of all time is Bel Canto by Ann Patchett. Also really love the Time Traveler's Wife.
I like reading cook books (did I just admit that?)
Now days I'm reading stuff about evolution, religion, and psychology for school! amazing!

My favorite movie is Amélie. I like documentaries about weird stuff in nature, but I don't really get into movies in general. I get bored.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent Christmas day listening to the Dalai Lama in Dharamsala and then with a Tibetian buddhist who taught me all about buddhism

Starting my life in Belfast has also been amazing - great flatmate, great girlfriend, great garden....i'm a happy camper

Teach, Learn, Share

Maybe we can learn French or English together. I can teach you some recipes and how to dance the waltz(or maybe some of my sweet dance moves, if you're lucky). I'd love to learn some gardening or cooking tips. I'm a trained hypnotist!

Countries I’ve Visited

Greece, India, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Turkey

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, France, United Kingdom, United States
