Overview
About Me
I'm an old soul at the mercy of my curiosity. I work, study, and play... I've made margarine tubs and windows in British factories, taught in Korean public schools and Canadian universities, and edited magazines and important-sounding fluff for high-profile public figures. I have collected a few degrees in a bunch of subjects, too. Life is too important to be taken seriously.
Interests
Good food, good conversation, culture and media, music, art, books, new ideas, the human condition.
