CURRENT MISSION

I have a compulsive desire to see the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm generally a pretty quiet person. I enjoy trying new things. I grew up in the US, but spent the last few years doing a master's in Germany. I recently got a job in Tokyo and am in the process of moving there.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sounds pretty mundane, but last year when I visited Morocco, I ended up sleeping on the terrace of a hostel on one of the last nights of my stay in Tangiers because I had some trouble breathing there. It was really nice in the cool before dawn in the morning dew to listen to the call to prayer coming out in waves around me from different mosques around the city.
