CURRENT MISSION

To meet as many interesting people and to explore as many facets of the world as possible.

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from across the wind-swept desert(where cactus knows no man!)in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. I'm a jazz musician and a bluegrass picker, so bring your axe if you have one! See also: gluten-free/dairy-free pancake enthusiast, celebrator of kites and frisbees, and professional hobnobber.

Interests

Moo-sak. I love playing and listening to anything I can get my hands on, and discussing said "moosak" with others! I love trying new music from different cultures. Reading is essential as well! >bookworm< Meeting new people, backpacking, running amok while windmilling my arms... that sort of thing.

Music, Movies, and Books

OoooOOooooo booooooks. I love to read. Anything really, but some favorites include A Prayer for Owen Meany, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Kite Runner, Girl With A Pearl Earring, A Thousand Splendid Suns, the Book Thief, the list goes on...
As for music, I'm a jazz, bluegrass, classical enthusiast. I've taken a recent interest in African and salsa music... I'm open to suggestion! As they say, music is an international language, so feel free to share.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Petted a sloth in a native rowboat on the Amazon under supervision of a tribal child.
