CURRENT MISSION

Our mission is not a plan. It is a resolution to appreciate existence, learn from experiences and share with people. Hopefully we can do all of those things whether our plans work out or not.

ABOUT ME

We both live in Connecticut and attend Wesleyan University. This is what we like: creating and sharing art of all forms, from music to photography to painting to collage; exploring secluded or untouched areas on foot until we are exhausted; cooking soups, slops or stir-frys and feasting with friends; reading anything from novels to philosophy to wikipedia; studying the brain; experiencing dance; eating and discussing pungent cheeses; visiting new places and meeting different people.
