I'm an easy-going, responsible, and university-educated individual who likes to visit new places and meet new people. I've lived abroad in Japan and Taiwan, and have traveled extensively in the United States by car and bicycle. I write/submit fiction and nonfiction for literary magazines, and I usually try and get out for a run more days than not. Other than these things I am open to do anything with my day. I can spend it walking around town, going for a hike, sitting in a coffee shop, or just relaxing at home.

Thanks for taking the time to review my profile and I hope I can spend some time getting to know you.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I took a bicycle trip from Glacier National Park, Montana, down to Santa Fe, New Mexico, back in the summer of 2016. I took the trip by myself, and while at times it did get lonely, I met a lot of kind and interesting people in a variety of different communities I'd never been to.
