About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find happiness in both the short- and long-term

ABOUT ME

I've lived in Geneva, Switzerland for two and half years now. I work at the UN and travel a lot with my job. I'm clean and polite and like to have a good time. I have a shy and nerdy sense of humor sometimes.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't like philosophy.

So far I haven't really pullsed the trigger. But in Peace Corps (Guinea), I hosted and was hosted by a lot of other volunteers and vice versa.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once saw a goat sacrifice in Kolkata. People went into religious ecastasy and spasmed on the ground.

Teach, Learn, Share

What skills could I share? Well, I'm a pretty decent chess-player, I suppose. And I know more Korean than most people (most non-Koreans, that is). I'm interested in learning everything.
