ABOUT ME

My name's Fil and I'm from Rhode Island. I live in South Kingstown with the smartest person I know (my partner Emma), the coolest person I know (our kiddo), our dog, two cats, and assorted chickens. I travel around with my friend Annie. She's a plastic lawn penguin from Massachusetts.

CURRENT MISSION

To explore strange new worlds, to seek out new cultures and civilizations, to boldly go where no penguin has gone before.

PHILOSOPHY

Be excellent to each other.

Algo increíble que he hecho

This one time, I married the smartest, kindest, most beautiful person I've ever met. We had a big party where family and friends came together to sing karaoke and dance and celebrate us. It was pretty amazing.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I love to discuss anything and everything, hear how other people view the world. I hope I can provide some good conversation, thoughtful responses, and maybe some photo opportunities with the world's best traveled lawn-penguin.

And if you happen to be organizing a union or a campaign to promote environmental justice or something, I might be able to offer a few ideas and contacts.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones
