ABOUT ME

I am a human boy from Portland, Oregon, in the soggy west coast of North America. I like going to visit other places, but I hate traveling (aeroplanes, trains, and automobiles).

I am happily married (but she cannot travel for another year, haha).

My infrequently updated website is http://ravasz.net.
