About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Diplomacy and beyond

ABOUT ME

I've got this masters in diplomacy and international commerce.
But what I really want is to be a doctor. Sounds weird, but at least I'm facing a good direction.

PHILOSOPHY

Some years ago, never mind how long precisely, having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world.
It is a way I have of driving off the spleen, and
regulating the circulation. Whenever I find myself...
growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off
then, I account it high time to get to sea
as soon as I can.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Let music never die in me; forever let my spirit sing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

probably the coolest place I have been is Lake Nemi in Italy.

It was once a place for worshipping the moon goddess, then Caligula's private pleasure lake of depraved partying. It could not be more decadent.

Teach, Learn, Share

" If we failed to hold our own, because that equal foot at all men's doors was heard knocking somewhere, every object in this world would slip from us. No! Ride on! Rough-shod if need be, smooth-shod if that will do, but ride on! Ride on over all obstacles, and win the race!"
