Music, Movies, and Books

blues, classical, jazz, folk punk, ragtime etc

Love all kinds of film particularly by directors like Lars Von Trier, Werner Herzog, Paul Thomas Anderson, early Harmony Korine etc. Harmony Korine's interviews on David Letterman in the 90's are also gems. Have you laughing nonstop.

The scent of the pages that belong to books are one of my favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching the sun rise right out of the Atlantic ocean, accompanied by good people and whiskey-coffee.

Gone across Canada -coast to coast-eight times.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Since moving back to Winnipeg, a year and a half ago, I have moved three different times. Sadly in the past year, I have moved twice to non-CS friendly houses. I was very much looking forward to passing forward the generosity that had been bestowed upon me. I have considered moving out, to find a CS friendly house but affordable housing isn't something to be taken lightly.

So! What can I share? Well, I would like to invite. you to my home and cook you a meal! We can eat and chat and if you like, I can take you on a walk around some of the city. If you are interested in movies, we could go to the cinematheque. Or if you want to see the river walk and the Forks, I can show you the way. I can give you a list of things to check out. Also, I work at a sourdough bakery and can happily gift you a whole loaf of bread. Your choice of flavour.

Looking forward to hosting folks one day. Sorry, I have been missing for a while now. In conjunction with my non CS friendly homes there was some personal issues. But now, I am ready to show folks around!
