About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be as impulsive as possible

ABOUT ME

I don't even know who I am. Please tell me :)
Well, what I can say is I've been playing violin since I was 4 and love it, and play with random people in strange places. More things I enjoy are dancing without stopping for hours, starting spontaneous and crazy adventures, and listening to people's stories of their lives. I am crazy, moody, always searching.

PHILOSOPHY

Eat more watermelon!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I read a ton, so ask me to recommend a novel. Anything from Russian (Tolstoy) to Native Canadian literature (Louise Erdrich).
I also like so so much music. Try Balkan Beat Box, Selim Sesler, Youssou N'dour, Prokofiev, Otis Redding, Goran Bregovic. Variety is the spice of life.
The movies that stick in my mind are Cinema Paradiso, Scared Sacred and Latcho Drom.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Cuba and playing at bars, restaurants or patios almost every night.
Arriving in Athens and going to a free Goran Bregovic concert that night (first night ever in Europe!)
