Avid off the beaten track traveler.

Enjoy good conversations, fusion cooking, languages, (all forms of yoga), (most types of) dancing and learning about culture and history.

Randomness has often ended up permanent in my life.

I've hosted a few people from my travels, need to get them to write me references!

Bucket list? Israel. Italy. Iran. Morocco. Eastern Europe. Former Yugoslavia.
