I love train travel, languages, typography, illustration, donuts, and talking with other creatives over tea. I prefer to go slow when traveling, and the people I meet are the best part of my journey.

I'm married to a beautiful Ecuadorian who's the best travel partner imaginable. I'd like to introduce her to the world of CSing and see if it affects her as much as it has me.

PHILOSOPHY

Good things happen when you leave the house. But also, staying home can be the best.
