Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To be young and make mistakes, but have excellent stories.
ABOUT ME
Half-asian from upstate New York who has been transient for the past 4 years. I've lived in many different places, mainly in the United States, but I have travelled to various parts of the world as well.
I studied architecture in school, I love architecture, but hate it at the same time. Love hate at it's finest.
I do not smoke cigarettes and I enjoy to have a beer or glass of whiskey. I love spending time in new city by walking around and taking pictures. I think that really helps one get aquatinted with their surroundings.
I think the best way to get to know someone is to just spend time with them, talking or no talking. Being able to see how someone will interact in any situation is the best way to read their character.
PHILOSOPHY
If it's not fun why do it?

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm not a big movie buff, but I'm not too picky. There are a lot of classics I haven't seen, but a lot of obscure movie that I have. Odd, but I'm working on it.
I love music. I usually get stuck on a couple of CDs at a time and won't stop listening to them for a few months. It's always changing.
I read a lot. Right now it's a lot of non-fiction. I heard someone say it's because I feel as if I did not learn enough while in college.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was young, maybe 12, my family and I trekked down the Grand Canyon on the back of mules. We then spent the night at the bottom in darkness, with the only sound the Colorado River trashing past.
