Music, Movies, and Books

such a range, from piano to reggaeton. movies, with a soft spot for old classics but an enjoyment too of anime and romantic comedies, especially rom-coms in other languages. books, right now i love nonfiction about animals, plants, the body, politics, law, and philosophy, and then poetry and fiction short story collections.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hiking the inca trail was a favorite, as was living in the area for a while (at over 3900 m high)! In the US, a favorite is exploring Yosemite.
