I live with my girlfriend in an apartment in Georgetown (a neighborhood of Washington, DC), a quiet area full of trees, parks, gardens, waterways, beautiful houses, shops, and cafes.

I enjoy reading, biking, hiking, running, and photography. I'm interested in history, geography, economics, philosophy, languages, science, and technology. I'm usually pretty quiet and prefer tranquility. I usually wake up very early naturally.

I am ethnically Ashkenazi Jewish and my girlfriend is ethnically Cantonese Chinese. I know some Hebrew, French, and Spanish, I've recently been learning Italian, and my girlfriend speaks Cantonese fluently and knows some Mandarin. We're both American and not at all religious.
