CURRENT MISSION

Figure at least half of it out.

ABOUT ME

Quirky, friendly, good listener. Will seek out strange things to see and eat.

PHILOSOPHY

I use the words of Kurt Vonnegut - Welcome to Earth, young man. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of: Goddamn it, you've got to be kind!

Interests

I am interested in Canadian and international politics. History of pretty much anywhere, though I´ve studied mainly Asia. I love literature, the theatre and creative writing, as well as trying new food and meeting new people.

Most importantly, I like beach glass, flea markets and the strange.
