CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I like to read, write, cook, eat and seek out good conversation with people from all walks of life. Generally low-key person, not a thrill seeker or hardcore party-goer (though I have ridden on the tallest swing in the world, and I do like to dance!). Will stay up all night talking books, music, movies and philosophy - fueled by food and drink, naturally. Shameless cat lover!

PHILOSOPHY

Keep eyes open, live fully...
