Music, Movies, and Books

Val:

Movies I enjoyed lately: Incendies, Rebel without a cause, 12 and Burnt by the Sun by Mikhalkov.

What's on my mp3 player these days: Regina Spector, Gogol Bordello, The Dears, The Arcade Fire, Tom Waits, Sonic Youth, The Resident, Jarvis Cocker, The Sleepy Jackson, Sparklehorse, Wolf Parade, Jefferson Airplane

Last books I read were for school (both teaching and studying) so I read "Women Contesting Mainstream Discourses in Arts" and "The 50 most important Fashion Designers of All Times" I also read comics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Val: I held a baby tiger and had my picture taken with him.

Teach, Learn, Share

Val: I can teach you about western costume and fashion history, if you're interested. I can teach Quebec french. I can share my love for art. I can also share recipes. I would like to learn a few words in your language and how to cook something typical from your place.
