CURRENT MISSION

Just want to poke my head around some corners of the world, take a look etc etc etc

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty bookish and into arts etc, and most interested in politics/social justice issues. I try to balance these interests with things like general enthusiasm for the outdoors: bike rides, hikes and general missions. I like second-hand things and scouting flea markets.

In the past I've studied political science and religious studies. Now I'm studying design. When I'm not studying I write music and play in bands and do all that stuff.

I am a friendly and polite vegetarian :)

PHILOSOPHY

Do it all.

TV:: The Wire, Breaking Bad, Arrested Development, Seinfeld, Black Adder, Life of Mammals...

Salinger, Lolita, Slaughterhouse 5, Middlesex, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, The Autobiography of Malcolm X, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, Ender's Game, Ursula Le Guin's Earthsea books, Murakami...
