About nine months into a year of travel. Looking to do less siteseeing and more friend-making 😬

Interests

Software development, typeface design and typography, playing banjo, dogs and cats, other forms of pets I have not yet experienced but I'm sure I'll be equally enthusiastic about.

Music, Movies, and Books

Kinda obsessed with Prince, equally sad about his newly aquired homophobia.

Love reading scifi, not so keen on scifi movies. Just finished Anathem by Neil Stephenson. Wow!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once paid a man 50 rupees to ferry me across a sewage canal on his floating pile of garbage.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am from Louisiana (the "French" part of America), so I confirm or deny all the stereotypes you may have acquired concerning the American South. For instance, I was indoctrinated into the fine art of squirrel hunting at the tender young age of 7. Yes, we eat them, and yes, it takes quite a few to make a stew.

I can show you how to cook Cajun-style pork chops and gravy, or squash cake, a tacky (but delicious) southern desert.

And making me even more comically American: I have my banjo with me and play american old style music very, very poorly. I will only play if you beg and I'm in the mood to feel humiliated.

I own Purple Rain on Amazon Prime, so you can watch it (duration of my stay in hours /1.5) times. Oh, and I have an HBOGo account which you can temporarily mooch (Games of Thrones, Veep, etc.)

Happy to share anything about these projects, or anything I know about software design/development or typeface design/development.
