CURRENT MISSION

To rock and roll til I die

ABOUT ME

I have a passion for writing, literature, cinema, photography, and music.

I love to learn about new cultures, languages, food, and people.

I go on adventures and (hopefully) get lost.

I'm a dreamer, an optimist, a pessimist, a thinker, a dark humorist, an outcast.

et j'aime la France!

PHILOSOPHY

Live dangerously, question everything, listen to everyone, and always eat and share fresh food.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Stayed in Beijing, China, for 5 weeks. It was a great experience.

Hung out in Paris for four days, where CSer Herbert Zometa gave me the time of my life. I will never forget it.
