CURRENT MISSION

Wherever friendly paths intersect, the whole world looks like home for a time. - Hermann Hesse

ABOUT ME

Well... I would say I'm pretty a straightforward gal. I like to read, I play the cello, I like to take pictures, see movies, learn something new every day, read the newspaper, and have great conversations over even better coffee or wine. Never wine and coffee at the same time though ;) I'm easygoing and opinionated... I get along with most everybody and am always up for an adventure!

PHILOSOPHY

"I never let my schooling interfere with my education." - Mark Twain

Music, Movies, and Books

This is a lofty section! I can never answer these things satisfactorily, there are far too many good films, musical genres, and books out there! But: Movies... The Philadelphia Story, Casablanca, The Fall, Roman Holiday, Paris Je T'aime, old Bond movies, anything independent, and anything by Woody Allen. Music... Keane, Muse, The Killers, Radiohead, The Beatles, The Strokes, Simon and Garfunkle, Ray LeMontagne, opera, and most classical works. Books... Le Petit Prince, Tender Is The Night, The Agony and the Ecstasy, and Hamlet.

Anyone who can teach me anything at all is someone worthwhile. I might have a few useful things to share as well :)
